Answer:
DPMO = 40
Does not meet Six Sigma goals
Step-by-step explanation:
If there are 40 possible defects in each of the 5,000 devices, the number of defect opportunities is:
[tex]n=5,000*40\\n=200,000\ opportunities[/tex]
If 8 total defects were found, the DPMO for the sample is:
[tex]DPMO = \frac{8}{200,000}*1,000,000\\DPMO = 40[/tex]
Six Sigma aims to reduce defects to 3.4 Defects Per Million Opportunities, since the DPMO is higher than 3.4, the process does not meet Six Sigma goals.
