Case Study 2: Work Efficiency and Speed, Distance, Time

Neha runs a neighborhood distribution center that receives orders from several shops once a week. On a particular Saturday she received a single large consignment of **540 identical food packets** that must be packed and labelled before the delivery trucks start at night. She assigns three workers for packing: **Amit**, **Binita** and **Chirag**. Based on past records **Amit can pack 18 packets per hour**, **Binita can pack 12 packets per hour** and **Chirag can pack 6 packets per hour**.

They begin work together at 9:00 a.m. After working together for some hours Chirag has to leave to attend a family emergency; Amit and Binita continue until the entire consignment is ready. Once packing finishes, Neha personally drives one of the delivery trucks to a nearby city **210 km** away to deliver an urgent portion. Because of variable traffic, she drives the first **70 km** at a steady low speed and then increases her speed for the remaining distance to ensure timely delivery. Students are expected to compute combined work rates, partial work completed, remaining work and time, and to solve the speed-distance-time questions for the journey.

MCQ Questions

  1. 1. What is the combined packing rate of Amit, Binita and Chirag (in packets per hour) when they work together?

  2. 2. If all three worked together for 5 hours, how many packets would they have packed by then?

  3. 3. After the first 5 hours Chirag leaves. How many hours will Amit and Binita together take to finish the remaining packets?

  4. 4. Neha drove the first 70 km of the 210 km trip at 35 km per hour. How much time did she spend on this part?

  5. 5. If Neha completed the remaining distance in 2 hours, what was her average speed for the second part?
