India has 100 tribunals to handle the 1.9 million people who have been removed from the citizenship rolls. Each of those people must appear before a tribunal to plead their case. The tribunals run for 16 hours a day. If on average 5,000 people are handled per day, what is the average number of hours it takes for a tribunal to hear a single case?If, instead, the average waiting time until a person pleads their case is 1 year, what is the average number of hours it takes for a tribunal to hear a single case?

Respuesta :

Answer:

a.) 0.320 hours

b) 0.307 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) If India has 100 tribunals running for 16 hours a day each and they are able to handle 5,000 people per day, the average number of hours it takes for a tribunal to hear a single case is:

[tex]A=\frac{100*16}{5,000}=0.32\ hours[/tex]

b.) If the average waiting time is 1 year (365 days), and there are 1.9 million people in the system, the number of people handled per day is:

[tex]N=\frac{1,900,000}{365}=5,205.48/day[/tex]

With 100 tribunals running for 16 hours a day, the average number of hours it takes for a tribunal to hear a single case is:

[tex]B= \frac{16*100}{5,205.48}\\ B=0.307\ hours[/tex]
