Answer:

0.5 week

Step-by-step explanation:

The time spent by a pound of meat in this system is given by the average number of pounds of meat on inventory (2500 pounds) divided by the average weekly meat consumption (5000 pounds per week).

The time, in weeks, is:

[tex]t=\frac{2500\ pounds}{5000\ pounds/week} \\t= 0.5\ week[/tex]

The average time spent by a pound of meat in production is 0.5 week.
