Alexandra [31]

Answer:

d) 0.750

Explanation:

The computation of the correct value for the resulting line's efficiency is shown below:

Efficiency = All task times sum ÷ (Actual number of workstations × cycle time)

where,

All task times sum is 60 minutes

The Actual number of workstations is 8

And, the cycle time is

Since 600 seconds = 10 minutes

And 1 minute = 60 seconds

So, the cycle time would be

= 600 ÷ 60

= 10 minutes

Now placing these values to the above formula

So, the resulting line's efficiency is

= 60 ÷ (8 × 10)

= 60 ÷ 80

= 0.750
