Save Answer 1 points A product is completed when

Save Answer 1 points A product is completed when 18 tasks are done. These tasks are assigned to 5 workstations (each workstation handling several tasks) in an assembly line set up. All workstations work the same amount of time (= cycle time), and move the (partial) product to the next workstation, and repeat this process. The last workstation generates the finished product. We need 400 units made every day (= 8 hours). What should be the cycle time in minutes? (Give the answer with two decimal places)
