    Sir its a question from bpp kit(39.3)
    It says, First batch took 45hr.
    Month /Total batches produced to date/Learning rate

    1. 1/1
    2. 2/2/75%
    3. 3/4/75%
    4. 8/8/90%
    What was the average production time per batch for the first eight batches?

    Have you watched my free lectures on learning curves, because this is more sensibly answered by applying the doubling rule (since 8 involves doubling three times) rather than trying to use the formula.

    The average time per batch for the first 2 batches is 0.75 x 45.
    The average time per batch for the first 4 batches is 0.75 x (0.75 x 45)
    The average time per batch for the first 8 batches is 0.9 x (0.75 x (0.75 x 45))
