Accepted Solution
A:
Answer:100Step-by-step explanation:There are two washers to do linen washing. Β We can fit only 5 sets of linens in one washer, and 45 mins are required to wash the linens.
Therefore, within 45 mins we can wash (5Γ2) =10 sets of lines.
If the shift is of 8 hours i.e. ( 8Γ60) =480 mins, then within this time the number of linen sets will be washed is (480/45)Γ10 = 106.67 β100 (Answer)
{Since the number of linen set to be washed will be multiple of 10}
