factory produces 40 cars per week what is the percentage change in production 30 cars per week 50 cars per week
Answers
Answer:
We have two rates and hence two different total number of toys produced: 100% of original machines at original rate, then 40% of machines at a new rate and 60% of machines at original rate
Assume 100 machines.
Change rates in minutes to rates in hours.
And assume time = 1 hour
Finally, 40% of 100 are new = 40 new machines and 60 old machines
Number of machines * R * T = Work
Rates in minutes --> rates in hours
Original rate:
, =
and
New rate FOR 40 MACHINES: =
(1). Original number of toys produced
100 machines at the original rate of produce (100 * * 1) = 2,000 toys originally produced
(2). Some old plus some new machines at different rates = new number of toys produced
So total toys produced now are made by 60 machines at original rate + 40 machines at new rate
Total toys that 60 machines produce: (60 * * 1) = 1,200 toys
Total toys that 40 machines produce: (40 * * 1) = 1,200 toys
1,200 + 1,200 = 2,400 total toys now produced
(3). Percent change: x 100 :
* 100 = 20%
