Hi John i am having difficulty in calculating the follow rate of learning:
The times taken to produce each of the 4 batches of a new product were as follows:
Batch number 1. Time taken 100 mins
Batch number 2. Time taken 70 mins
Batch number 3. Time taken 59 mins
Batch number 4. Time taken 55 mins
What was the rate of learning closest to?
Ask the Tutor ACCA PM
Rate of Learning Question
10y ago#1The average time per batch for 4 batches is 71 minutes
The time for 1 batch is 100 minutes
Therefore the best estimate of the learning rate is: the square root of 71/100 = 0.84 (or 84%)
hi please, i don`t get how you got average time per batch for 4 batches as 71 minutes. or is it that lee taylor skipped it in the question.
thanks in advance
10y ago#3To get the average you add up the time for all 4 batches and then divide by 4 !!
got it right.thump up!
