If 5 machines can make 12,000 widgets in four 8-hour working days, then how similar machines can make 150 widgets in one hour? Thank you for help.
12,000 / 5 machines/4 days / 8 hours =75 widgets per machine per hour. therefore it takes.
150/75=2 machines required for 1 hour.
5 machines can make 12,000 widgets in four 8-hour working days
So....
5 machines can make 12000 widgets in 32 hours
So.... in one hour...5 machines can make 12000 / 32 = 375 widgets
So....each machine can make 375 / 5 = 75 widgets per hour
So...to make 150 widgets in one hour...we need 150 / 75 = 2 machines
