You are refilling your inventory of welcome packet for new cutomer. For each packet, it take 5 minute to print, 2 minute to organize, and 5 minute to proofread. The ink in the printer will need to be changed every 5 packet, which take 3 minute. You have 3 hour to dedicate to thi tak. Aume thathe ink in the printer wa already changed before beginning and that you have to complete each packet before completing any tep for the next one. How many welcome packet will you be able to fully complete in the time allotted?

Answer 1

To complete each welcome packet, it will take a total of 5 minutes to print + 2 minutes to organize + 5 minutes to proofread = 12 minutes.

If it takes 3 minutes to change the ink in the printer every 5 packets, you will need to change the ink in the printer every 5 packets * 12 minutes per packet = 60 minutes.

In total, it will take you 60 minutes to change the ink in the printer + 12 minutes per packet to complete each packet, for a total of 60 minutes + (12 minutes/packet * number of packets) = 72 minutes per packet.

In the time allotted, you have 3 hours * 60 minutes/hour = 180 minutes.

Therefore, you will be able to fully complete 180 minutes / 72 minutes per packet = 2.5 packets.

Rounded down to the nearest whole number, you will be able to fully complete 2 welcome packets in the time allotted.
