You are planning a new production floor. You will need space for eight manufacturing processes and six stockpiles. Each takes 160 square feet. You want space for those items and 40% open space. How much total space do you need

Respuesta :

Answer:

Total space needed is 3136 square feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

Space required for eight manufacturing processes and six stockpiles.

Each takes 160 square feet.

Space required for 8 process =

[tex]=8\times 160\\=1280\text{ square feet}[/tex]

Space required for 6 stockpiles =

[tex]=6\times 160\\=960\text{ square feet}[/tex]

Total space =

[tex]=1280 + 960\\=2240\text{ square feet}[/tex]

Open space required = 40%

[tex]=\dfrac{40}{100}\times 2240\\\\=896\text{ square feet}[/tex]

Total space required =

[tex]=2240 + 896\\=3136\text{ square feet}[/tex]

Thus, total space needed is 3136 square feet.
