Answer #1

Answer:

Given,

ta = 25 minutes
te = 30 minutes
sa = 25 minutes
se = 60 minutes
m = 6

So,

ca = sa / ta = 25/25= 1
ce = se / te = 60/30= 2

Utilization, u = te / (m.ta) = 30/ (6*25) = 0.20

Average waiting time (CTq) is computed using formula:

= ((1^2 + 2^2)/2) * (0.2^(SQRT(2*(6+1)) - 1))*30 / (6*(1 - 0.2))

= 0.19 minutes
