Question

An automatic machine produces $1$ part every $2.3$ minutes.

How long in hours will it take to produce $5000$ parts?

Answer 1

Finding time to produce $5000$ parts:

Given,

Machine produces $1$ part every $2.3$ minutes

Now, total number of minutes to produce $5000$ parts

$$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow \frac{5000parts}{{\displaystyle \frac{1part}{2.3min}}} \\ \Rightarrow 11500minutes \end{gathered}$$

We have to find in hours so,

$$\begin{gathered} \Rightarrow \frac{11500}{60} \\ \Rightarrow 191.67hours \end{gathered}$$

Hence, It will take $191.67hours$ to produce $5000$ parts
