40min/patient
i think its 2 patients? im in alg2 class so i thought about it real quick but:

  • cleaning always takes 20 minutes. as cleaning gets done, check in gets done. meaning one in cleaning / dentist inspection. after 15 minutes check in gets another, but dentist loses theirs. therefor only 2 pateints

The capacity is 3 patients/hour.
Check-In, Cleaning, and Dentist Inspection are each handled by a different person, so the throughput is just whoever has the lowest capacity on their individual section.

Check-In handles 12 patients/hour.
Cleaning handles 3 patients/hour.
Dentist Inspection handles 4 patients/hour.

The one that takes the most time is Cleaning, so that’s the bottleneck; therefore, the capacity for that section is the capacity of the entire process.

they shouldnt make the change since dentist inspection cant hold both of the patients for hygenists. it would be redundent
