Read Solution (Total 10)
-
- 15600 items
1 employee produces 300 items per day
1/3 of the employees were absent for 2/5 days of last week.
==> 4 employees were absent for 2 days.
Items produced by them in 3 days
= 300*3*4
=3600
Items produced by other employees
=8*5*300
=12000
Total items produced = 12000+3600
=15600

- 15600
total item produce by 12 employee in 5 days.
= 12*5*300
=18000 items
item produce by those absent empoyee
=4*2*300
=2400 items
so originally total item produce
=18000-2400
= 15600 items Ans. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(40) No(1)
- (Day) (Man) (Iteam)
5 12 18000
2 8 ?
18000*4/12*2/5=2400
So,(18000-2400)=15600 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(4) No(1)
- Total no. of employee = 12
1/3 of employee ==> 12 * 1/3 = 4
So 4 employees were absent for 2/5 of the days
So for 2/5 days , 12 - 4 employees only worked
for 12 employees, 300 items produced
for (12-4) , x
x= 8/12 * 300 = 200
So 200 items produced on d day of employees absent
4 employees absent only for 2/5 days (ie) 2 days... Remaining 3 days , all d employees worked together...
So total items produced last week = 3*300 + 2*200 = 1300
Ans : 1300 items - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(3) No(15)
- 1300
employees----items
12 ---- 300
1 -----x
x = 300/12 = 25
1 employee produces 25 items per day.
1/3 of the employees were absent for 2/5 days of last week.
==> 4 employees were absent for 2 days.
Items produced by them in 3 days
= 25*3*4
=300
Items produced by other employees
=8*5*25
=1000
Total items produced = 1000+300
=1300

- 12 employees ,each produce 300
means total 12*300=3600 per day
for 5 days = 3600*5= 18000
1/3 absent for2/5 days ==> 4/12 absent for2/5 days
4 absent for 2 days
4*300 =1200 for 1 day . for 2 days 2400
since they dont work , remove that 2400 from total (if allhave worked =18000)
18000-2400= 15600 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(1) No(1)
- According to question total namdays work is
5*12=60
produces 300 items
The wrok going through
5*(2/5)*12+(1-2/3)*5*(12*1/3)
=24+12
=3*12
60 manpower produce 300
36 '' '' (300/60)*36=180
Ans is 180 - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(2)
- @ANN THERESSA....
1 employee doesnt produce 300 items per day... 12 employee produces 300 item per day....
look at the solution of saraswathi.. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(3)
- ans 16200
Since 1/3rd of employees were absent from work for 2/5 days. Therefore,
For 2/5 i.e. 2 days ---> 8 employees work for 2 days and produce 300 items per day so -- > 8*2*300=5400
For remaining 3 days -- > 12 employees work for 3 days and produce 300 items per days so --> 12*3*300=10800
i.e. Total items produced = 5400+10800=16200 is the ans. - 10 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(3)
