Problema Solution
If a production line produces 50 mouse traps every 30 minutes over the course of a 10 hour work day with a half-hour break for lunch, how many mouse traps are made in a day?
Answer provided by our tutors
The rate of production is:
v = 50/0.5 traps per hour = 100 traps per hour
t = 10 hr - 0.5 hr = 9.5 hr if the time of the active production
The total number of traps made is:
v*t = 100*9.5 = 950 traps
There are 950 mouse traps made in a day.
