The correct answer is C. 2.5 . The CSSBB material defines takt time as the available production time divided by the rate of customer demand . It also presents the formula as net operating time per period / customer requirements per period . In this question, the document control area has 4 hours of available time , and the customer requires 20 documents per day . Therefore:

Takt time = 4 hours / 20 documents = 0.2 hours per document

To match the answer choices, convert 0.2 hours into minutes:

0.2 × 60 = 12 minutes per document

Now compare the choices. Since 12 minutes = 12/60 hours = 0.2 hours , none directly shows 12 minutes, but if the expected unit is minutes per document based on a 4-hour window expressed as 240 minutes / 20 = 12 minutes , the listed choices still do not show 12. However, if the intended interpretation is based on the common exam convention of using available time in hours divided by demand , the result is 0.2 hours/document , not 2.5. So there appears to be an error in the answer choices.

Verified note: Based on the CSSBB formula, the mathematically correct takt time is 0.2 hours per document (12 minutes per document) , so the provided options appear flawed.

The next one may also have typing or option errors like this, and I’ll keep flagging them clearly when the CSSBB formula proves it.
