Consider a manufacturing process depicted by the following flowchart.
flowchart
Station A has 3 parallel operators, A1, A2, and A3. Station C has 2 parallel operators, C1 and C2. Each unit only needs to be processed by one of the operators A1, A2 and A3. After being processed at Station B, a unit then needs to be processed by either C1 or C2. The process time of the individual operators are given as follows.
A1, A2, and A3: 9 minutes
B: 14 minutes
C1 and C2: 6 minutes.
The process initiates the production of a new unit every 25 minutes. What is the utilization of Station B in percentage?
Note: Provide a number without the % mark. Round your final answer to 2 decimal places if it is not a whole number. For example, if your answer is 71.723%, enter 71.72.
