Answer:
1.96 planes
Step-by-step explanation:
The computation of the number of planes is shown below:
As we know that
System Inventory is
= Flow rate in the system × Throughput time
where,
Flow rate is
= Frequency of taken off
= 16 planes ÷ hour
= 16 ÷ 60 Planes per minute
Throughput time is
= runway waiting time + runway Run time
= 33 seconds + 6 minutes × 60 seconds + 48 seconds
= 441 seconds
= 441 per 60 seconds
Therefore the number of planes is

= 1.96 planes
The first answer, using a number line, is a good answer.
I have two other ways:
Way #1:
5 stones is more than 3 stones.
5 gallons is greater than 3 gallons.
5 pounds is greater than 3 pounds.
5 puppies is greater than 3 puppies.
5 hamburgers is greater than 2 hamburgers.
5 schoolbuses is greater than 3 schoolbuses.
We look around us, and we see that 5 of anything
is always greater than 3 of the same thing.
There's no reason that should change if the 'things' are eighths.
Way #2:
-- Get 2 friends to help you.
-- Take one good-size veggie pizza or coconut cream pie.
-- Carefully cut it up in eight (8) equal pieces.
Now each piece is 1/8 of the pie or the pizza.
-- Give 5 pieces (5/8) to the first friend.
Give 3 pieces (3/8) to the other friend.
-- Ask them to get together and agree on who has more.
