(Enter your response as a percent rounded to two decimal places.)
We assume that the birth of babies is equally divided between separate Labour room and delivery rooms ( 33 each)
Labour rooms = 30 service time =24 hours, which means, mu= 1 customer /day
Babies born per day = 33/3 =11
Utilisation = 11/1x30 = 11/30 = 36.66%
Combined rooms =19 service time = 24 hours, mu = 1 customer /day
Babies born per day =37/3 =12.33
Utilisation = 12.33 /1x19 = 64.89%
Delivery rooms =55 service time =1 hour, mu = 24 customers /day
Babies born per day = 33/3 =11
11/55 x24 = 0.83%
Combined rooms have best utilisation rate of 64.89%
