However, they produced 20 more dresses each day than
planned, and as a result finished the job earlier than sche
many days early did they finish the job?

Respuesta :

Answer:

  2.5 days

Step-by-step explanation:

The planned production rate was ...

  (4500 dresses)/(25 days) = 180 dresses/day

The actual production rate was ...

  180 dresses/day + 20 dresses/day = 200 dresses/day

So the actual time required for production of 4500 dresses was ...

  (4500 dresses)/(200 dresses/day) = 22.5 days

That is the time required was less by ...

  25 days -22.5 days = 2.5 days

The company finished 2.5 days early.
