Your supervisor asks you to figure out how many sets of bed linens can be washed in an 8 hour shift. Here are the facts you know: You can only fit 5 sets of linens in one washer, it takes 45 min. to wash the linens and you have 2 washers to do linens in. How many sets of linens can be washed in 8 hours?

Respuesta :

Answer:

100

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two washers to do linen washing.  

We can fit only 5 sets of linens in one washer, and 45 mins are required to wash the linens.

Therefore, within 45 mins we can wash (5×2) =10 sets of lines.

If the shift is of 8 hours i.e. ( 8×60) =480 mins, then within this time the number of linen sets will be washed is (480/45)×10 = 106.67 ≈100 (Answer)

{Since the number of linen set to be washed will be multiple of 10}
