Posted on March 10, 2022 by NCLEX.ME Nurse
  • platelets 129
  • RBC 4.2
  • WBC 15.6

Number 3 is correct.
A normal white blood cell count in an adult is between 3.5 and 10.5. A high result such as 15.6 may indicate infection or inflammation. The other values listed are normal, expected values in an adult female.
