You went to renew your school ID and there was a long line with students leaving every 5 minutes. What is the capacity (in students per hour) of the ID office?
Expert Answer
As per data provided ( i.e 1 student leaving every 5 minutes ) ,
the cycle time of the process = 5 minutes/ student
Therefore, Capacity ( in students per hour ) = 60 minutes/ cycle time = 60/5 = 12 students
CAPACITY OF THE ID OFFICE 12 STUDENTS PER HOUR
