Output per hour=12
Time required to make one unit=60/12=5 minutes
Time should be less than 5 minutes.
Let xth be the unit number at which objective is met,
Learning percentage=b=65%=0.65
Time needed in making first part=K=30 minutes
According to learning curve
Time needed to make xth unit, Yx=Kxn
where n=logb/log2=lon(0.65)/log(2) =-0.62149
So, plug in the given numbers
5=30*(x)-0.62149
5*x0.62149=30
x0.62149=6
x=61/0.62149
x=17.86
It means 17 units should be produced before the output rates exceeds 12 units per hour. On 18th unit, output rate exceeds 12 units per hour.
