Question

Jenny owns a printer services company in West New York. Her printer takes about 59.33 minutes to produce one printed poster (1 unit). What is the capacity of the Jenny's printer when expressed in units per day? Let us assume that each shift is 11 hours. There is only one printer currently operating at her facility Input the number only into the answer box, rounded up to the nearest whole unit.

Answer 1

The capacity of Jenny's printer when expressed in units per day is 11.088 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the capacity of Jenny's printer when expressed in units per day, we first need to determine how many units the printer can produce in one hour. Since the printer takes about 59.33 minutes to produce one unit, we can calculate the number of units produced in one hour by dividing 60 (minutes in an hour) by 59.33. This gives us approximately 1.008 units per hour.

Next, we need to determine how many hours the printer operates in a day. Since there is only one printer operating at Jenny's facility and each shift is 11 hours, we know that the printer operates for 11 hours.

To find the capacity of the printer in units per day, we simply multiply the number of units produced in one hour (1.008) by the number of hours the printer operates in a day (11).

Capacity = 1.008 units/hour x 11 hours = 11.088 units/day.
