Answer:
12.55 days.
Explanation:
Arrival time (a) = 1 day
Coefficient of variation of arrival (CVa) = 1
Processing time (p) = 1.8 days
Standard deviation for processing = 2.7 days
Coefficient of variation for processing = Standard deviation for processing/ Processing time
Coefficient of variation for processing (CVp) = 2.7/ 1.8
Coefficient of variation for processing (CVp) = 1.5
Given, number of servers (m) = 2
Utilization of system (u) = p/(m×a)
Utilization of system (u) = 1.8/(2×1)
Utilization of system (u) = 0.9
Let waiting time in the queue = Tq
Formula for waiting time in queue is quite complicated to write it here. SO, I have attached in the attachment below. Please refer to the attachment to see the formula for Tq.
SO, after plugging in the values in to the formula, we get:
Tq = 12.55 Days
Therefore, the Expected duration between when an order is received and when production begins = 12.55 days
