Answer:

R = 4 customers per minute

I = 12 customers in line

average time (T) = 3 minutes per customer

Explanation:

if we follow Little's Law and its assumptions: L = λW

  • L = average number of clients in line = 12
  • λ = arrival or departure rate = 4 per minute
  • W = average waiting time

W = L / λ

average waiting time = average number of clients in line / average number of clients arriving (or departing) = 12 / 4 = 3 minutes

Little's Law can also be written as I = RT

I = L

R = λ
