Answer 2

Answer:

40cars/hr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of cars produced per day  = 320cars

Hours in a work day  = 8hours

Unknown:

Hourly rate at which cars are produced  = ?

Solution:

This is a simple rate problem.

Rate is the amount of something done per unit of time. It can be work done, food consumed, power used or generated e.t.c.

       To solve this problem;

                  Hourly rate of production  = $\frac{number of cars produced per day}{hours in a work day}$

                  Hourly rate  = $\frac{320}{8}$   = 40cars/hr
