one with new. The old assembly line generates products at a rate of 48 per hour,
the new one at 60 per hour. If both assembly lines are operating at the same
time, how long will it take them to create a total of 180 products?

Answer 1

Answer:

the first one would take 3 hours and 45 mins to make 180 by itself

the second one would take 3 hours to make 180 by its self

if this ant the answer let me  know

Answer 2

Using unitary method, the manufacturing company will take 1 hour 40 minutes to create a total of 180 products.

What is unitary method?

The unitary method is a technique for solving a problem by first finding the value of a single unit, and then finding the necessary value by multiplying the single unit value.

Number of products generated by old assembly line in 60 minutes = 48

Number of products generated by old assembly line in 1 minute = 48/60 = 0.8

Number of products generated by new assembly line in 60 minutes = 60

Number of products generated by new assembly line in 1 minutes = 60/60 = 1

Total production in 1 minute = 1 + 0.8 = 1.8

Time taken to produce 180 products = 180/1.8 = 100 minutes = 1 hour 40 minutes
