How much manpower is required to complete 2,000 orders in 20 hours if one employee has a productivity rate of 210 orders per hour?

Question

Accepted Answer

To complete 2,000 orders in 20 hours with a productivity rate of 210 orders per hour, you would need 10 employees.

One employee can complete 210 orders per hour
To complete 2,000 orders in 20 hours, you would need 10 employees (2,000 orders / 20 hours = 100 orders per hour; 100 orders per hour / 210 orders per hour per employee = 10 employees)

Accepted Answer

Calculate the total productivity of one employee in 20 hours: [ 	ext{Orders per employee in 20 hours} = 	ext{Productivity rate} 	imes 	ext{Hours worked} ] [ 	ext{Orders per employee in 20 hours} = 210 , 	ext{orders/hour} 	imes 20 , 	ext{hours} = 4200 , 	ext{orders} ]

Determine how many employees are needed to complete 2,000 orders: [ 	ext{Number of employees required} = \frac{	ext{Total orders}}{	ext{Orders per employee in 20 hours}} ] [ 	ext{Number of employees required} = \frac{2000 , 	ext{orders}}{4200 , 	ext{orders}} \approx 0.4762 ]

Since we cannot have a fraction of an employee, we round up to the nearest whole number. Therefore, you would need 1 employee to complete 2,000 orders in 20 hours, as one employee can handle up to 4,200 orders in that time.
