Defective Motors


1. The problem asks to find the number of defective motors produced by each production team given the total motors produced and the defect percentages. 2. We are given: - Team A: 4500 motors, 25% defective - Team B: 2500 motors, 6% defective - Team C: 3800 motors, 9% defective - Team D: 4500 motors, 15% defective - Team E: 3500 motors, 13% defective 3. To find the defective motors for each team, multiply the total motors by the defect percentage: $$\text{Defective motors} = \text{Total motors} \times \frac{\text{Defect percentage}}{100}$$ 4. Calculations: - Team A: $4500 \times 0.25 = 1125$ - Team B: $2500 \times 0.06 = 150$ - Team C: $3800 \times 0.09 = 342$ - Team D: $4500 \times 0.15 = 675$ - Team E: $3500 \times 0.13 = 455$ 5. Final answer: - Team A: 1125 defective motors - Team B: 150 defective motors - Team C: 342 defective motors - Team D: 675 defective motors - Team E: 455 defective motors This shows how many defective motors each team produced based on the given percentages and production numbers.
