A rendering plant is capable of producing 10 tons of product per day if run for three shifts with no breakdowns and plenty of raw materials. Over the past week, the plant has rendered an average of 7.3 tons per day since the third shift has devoted much of their time to preventive maintenance. What is the capacity of the plant?
a.10 tons/day.
b.7.3 tons/day.
c.73%.
d.137%

Respuesta :

Answer:

Option C is correct

Explanation:

Given,

The maximum capacity of the plant when it is operating at [tex]100[/tex]% (i.e without any breakdown)efficiency is equal to [tex]10[/tex] tons of product per day.

However, the plant can produce [tex]7.3[/tex] tons of product per day with constraints.

So, the capacity of the plant is given by actual production with constraint divided by maximum production without any constraints.

This is equal to

[tex]\frac{7.3}{10} * 100\\= 73[/tex]%

Hence, option C is correct
