In assembly-line balancing,the theoretical minimum number of workstations is:
A)the ratio of the sum of all task times to cycle time.
B)always (when a fraction)rounded upward to the next larger integer value.
C)not always possible to reach when tasks are actually assigned to stations.
D)all of the above.
E)none of the above.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The theoretical minimum number of workstations is calculated by dividing the sum of all task times by the cycle time (A), rounding up to the next integer if it's a fraction (B), and it may not always be possible to achieve this minimum due to task assignment constraints (C).
