The cutting tool on a lathe moves 128 in. along the

piece being turned for each revolution of work. The
piece revolves at 45 revolutions per minute. How long will it take to turn a length of 94-in. stock in one
operation?

To turn a length of 94-in. stock in one operation on a lathe, it would take 94-in. / 128-in. x 1 revolution/45 revolution per minute = 2.093333 minutes.
