Answer:

  • first shift: 13,750 bulbs
  • second shift: 2500 bulbs

Step-by-step explanation:

The production ratio is ...

  shift 1 : shift 2 = 5.5 : 1 = 11 : 2

so, the production on shift 1 as a ratio to the total is ...

  shift 1 : total = 11 : (11+2) = 11 : 13

The first shift produced ...

  (11/13)(16,250 bulbs) = 13,750 bulbs . . . . first shift

and the second shift produced ...

  (2/13)(16,250 bulbs) = 2,500 bulbs . . . . second shift

_____

Of course, once you have one of the numbers, you can also find the other by using the 5.5 factor or by subtracting from total production.
