A)If you copy and paste from a previous answer i will report it

a)Suppose Bruno wants to minimize the amount of each flavor produced at one time while still satisfying the demand for each of the flavors. (He can choose a different quantity for each flavor.) If we define a batch to be the quantity produced in a single run of each flavor, how many kg should he produce in each batch (add up all flavors)?

b)What is the percent of fragola to the total batch? (this is slightly different from the book question.)

(your number should look like this: 44.55 for 44.55%)

Thanks

9. Bruno Fruscalzo decided to set up a small production facility in Sydney to sell to the local restaurants who want to offer gelato on their dessert menu. To start simple, he would offer only three flavors of gelato: fragola (strawberry), chocolato (chocolate), and bacio (chocolate with hazelnut). After a short time, he determined his demand and setup times, listed in Table 7.6. TABLE 7.6 Bruno first produces a batch of fragola, then a batch of chocolato, then a batch of bacio, and then he repeats that sequence. For example, after producing bacio and before producing fragola, he needs 45 minutes to set up the ice cream machine, but he needs only 10 minutes to switch from chocolato to bacio. When running, his ice cream machine produces at the rate of 50kgs per hour no matter which flavor it is producing (and, of course, it can produce only one flavor at a time)
