Question

The Academic Computing Center has five trainers available in its computer labs to provide training sessions to students. Assume that the design capacity of the system is 1900 students per semester and that effective capacity equals 90% of design capacity. If the number of students who actually got their orientation session is 1500, what is the efficiency of the system?

Answer 1

Answer:

87.72%

Step-by-step explanation:

Data provided in the question:

Design capacity of the system = 1900 students per semester

Effective capacity = 90% of design capacity

Actual number of students = 1500

Now,

Efficiency = [ [ Actual capacity ] ÷ [ Effective capacity ] ] × 100%

also,

Effective capacity = 90% of 1900

= 0.90 × 1900

= 1710

Efficiency = [ 1500 ÷ 1710 ] × 100%

= 0.8772 × 100%

= 87.72%
