Question

i'm working at a distribution place and need help i'm supposed to be averaging 1000 units every hours if i do 4800 in a shift i'm 48 minutes behind schedule how many units per a hour am i averaging

Answer 1

Expected throughput is
1000 units/h

Therefore the expected time for 4800 units is
(4800 units)/(1000 units/h) = 4.8 hours = 288 minutes

Because the worker is 48 minutes behind schedule, the actual time is
288 + 48 = 336 minutes = 5.6 hours

The actual average throughput is
(4800 units)/(5. h) = 857 units per hour.

Answer: 857 units per hour.
