Enter the total number of units produced and the total amount of time into the Production Rate Calculator. The calculator will evaluate the Production Rate.

## Production Rate Formula

The following two example problems outline the steps and information needed to calculate the Production Rate.

PR = U / T
• Where PR is the Production Rate (units/time)
• #U is the total number of units produced
• T is the total amount of time

To calculate a production rate, divide the number of units produced by the total amount of time.

## How to Calculate Production Rate?

The following example problems outline how to calculate Production Rate.

Example Problem #1:

1. First, determine the total number of units produced.
• The total number of units produced is given as: 6.
2. Next, determine the total amount of time.
• The total amount of time is provided as: 3 hours.
3. Finally, calculate the Production Rate using the equation above:

PR = #U / T

The values provided above are inserted into the equation below and computed.

PR = 6 / 3 = 2 (units/hour)

Example Problem #2:

For this problem, the variables required are provided below:

total number of units produced = 600

total amount of time = 20
