Question

At an automobile factory, 1849 parts are made in 4 hours. What is the average rate at which parts are made per hour?

Answer 1

Just divide "1849 parts" by "4 hours:" the average rate is 1849/4 parts/hour,

or 1849 parts/ 4 hours, or 462.25 parts/hour, or (rounded off) 462 parts/hour.

Answer 2

462.25

Explanation:

At an automobile factory, the number of parts are made in 4 hours = 1849.

We have to calculate the average rate of production per hour.

We will divide the production of parts in 4 hours by 4 to get the number of parts made per hour.

The average rate of production in one hour =
`(1849)/(4)`

= 462.25/hour

462.25 parts are made per hour.
