Question 503040

Let x denote the number of quantities "shift 2" actually produce. 
Therefore, "shift day" produces 4x quantities.

Total production = 5,500 cars
=> {{{4x + x = 5500}}}
       {{{5x = 5500}}}
       {{{ x = 5500/5}}}
X=1100

Hence, shift 2" produced 1,100 cars and "shift day" produced 4,400 cars this month.

Verification:
Shift day: Qty=4400 cars (4 times the qty of shift 2)
Shift 2:   Qty=1100 cars

Total= 4400 + 1100 = 5,500 cars produced
