Given the following amount of work in seconds required at each station:
_____________________
A 38 J 32 X 22
B 34 K 30 Y 18
C 35 L 34 Z 20
a. What is the possibility daily output of this “process” if 8 hours of processing time is available each day?
To calculate the possibility daily output of the process, we need to determine how much work can be completed within 8 hours.
First, we need to convert the 8 hours into seconds since the given work times are in seconds. There are 60 seconds in a minute and 60 minutes in an hour, so:
8 hours * 60 minutes/hour * 60 seconds/minute = 28,800 seconds
Next, we sum up the work times at each station to determine the total work time:
Total work time = 38 + 32 + 22 + 34 + 30 + 18 + 35 + 34 + 20 = 263 seconds
Finally, we can calculate the possibility daily output by dividing the total work time by the available processing time:
Possibility daily output = Total work time / Available processing time = 263 seconds / 28,800 seconds = 0.00912 or approximately 0.91%
Therefore, the possibility daily output of this process, given 8 hours of processing time each day, is approximately 0.91%.
