Answer:

25,000

Explanation:

Given that,

Time taken from first step to final step, cycle time = 1.25 hours

Demand for candy bars = 20,000

Throughput time = 20,000 candy bars per hour

Candies in process is work in progress:

= cycle time × Throughput time

= 1.25 hours × 20,000 candy bars per hour

= 25,000

Therefore,

25,000 candy bars are in process, on average.
