standard deviation of 5 orders within a minute. There are always
orders in the queue waiting to be picked.

Order Picking II
Order Picking I Same situation where expected orders picked in an hour
are distributed Normally with mean of 240 and standard
deviation of 38.7.
• What is the approximate probability that they will pick
between 220 and 260 orders within an hour?

This is trivial since they are all given! Average = median = 4.6 km. 3. What is the probability that distance is +/- 1σ of the μ?
CV=σ/μ=1.1/4.6 = 0.24
By definition, 68.3%. But we could also use the cdf functions.
P[X≤5.7] – P[X≤3.5] = NORM.DIST(5.7, 4.6, 1.1, 1) NORM.DIST(3.5, 4.6, 1.1,
1) = 0.841 - 0.158 = 0.683 or 68.3%.

Uniform Distribution
We would say,
“X is uniformly distributed over the range a to b, or
X~U(a,b)”
