This year, Druehl, Inc., will produce 57 comma 60057,600 hot water heaters at its plant in Delaware, in order to meet expected global demand. To accomplish this, each laborer at the plant will work 160160 hours per month. If the labor productivity at the plant is 0.250.25 hot water heaters per labor hour, how many laborers are employed at the plant

The number of laborers employed by the plant is 120 laborers

Explanation:

According to given data Annual output = 57600 water heaters.

So the output per month = 57,600 / 12 months = 4,800 water heaters

Each labor works 160 hours per month

Suppose ,there are x number of laborers employed by the plant. So,x number of laborer will work 160x hours per month. So the labor input = 160x per month

Labor productivity = 0.25

Labor productivity = Output / Labor input

0.25 = 4800 / 160x

25/100 = 4800/160x

160x = (4800 X 100) / 25

160x = 19200

x = 19200/160

x = 120

Therefore, the number of laborers employed by the plant is 120 laborers
