Subject: established patient who is s/l 25 and 5 7ths weeks of gestational age sm
The patient is not 25 years old but she dictates these numbers and I am unsure how to type it for it to make sense. It sounds like she is saying, "patient is 25 and 5/7 weeks gestational age. Do they dictate gestational age by the 7ths for days of the week? Would you type it 25-5/7 week gestational age?

onelook.com is a good dictionary source on-line.
Were is correct.
Subject: Were is correct.
As the word remainder represents a portion, the verb to use is determined by the noun in the "of phrase" that follows. In your case, "forms" is plural so use were.
This rule also applies for other "portion" words such as none, all, some, part, etc. Hope this helps.
PS: See 'The Blue Book of Grammar and Punctuation' by Jane Straus.
