Question

A worker is using a overhead crane to move crates from point A to point B. How many minutes would it take the worker to move sixty five 100-pound crates?
Note that the overhead crane has a 1000-pound lifting capacity. Each trip with the crane took 2-minutes to complete.

Answer 1

Because Since the crane's carrying capacity is 1,000 pounds, it takes 7 rides to transport 65 boxes of 100 pounds each. Each trip takes 2 minutes, which means that the crane will spend a total of 14 minutes on cargo transportation.
