If the maximum life for a certain part is 1,100 hours and the average life of removed parts is 835.3 hours, what percent of the maximum part life has been achieved?

To determine the percentage of the maximum part life that has been achieved, you can use the formula for percentage, which is:

[

\text{Percentage of life achieved} = \left( \frac{\text{Average life of removed parts}}{\text{Maximum life}} \right) \times 100

]

In this case, the maximum life of the part is 1,100 hours, and the average life of the removed parts is 835.3 hours. Plugging in these values, the calculation becomes:

[

\text{Percentage of life achieved} = \left( \frac{835.3}{1100} \right) \times 100

]

Calculating the fraction first:

[

\frac{835.3}{1100} \approx 0.759

]

Now, converting that into a percentage:

[

0.759 \times 100 = 75.9%

]

This result shows that the average life of removed parts has achieved 75.9% of the maximum life of the part. This percentage is significant because it indicates how much of the expected operational lifespan has been utilized. In this case, it means that the parts are nearing their
