The formula to calculate the Items Per Second (IPS) is:
\[ IPS = \frac{TI}{TT} \]
Where:
Items per second is a measure of the rate at which items are processed, produced, or consumed. It is a common metric used in manufacturing, logistics, and computer science to quantify the efficiency of a system or process. Understanding the items per second rate can help in optimizing operations and increasing productivity.
Let's say the total number of items (TI) is 500, and the total time (TT) is 100 seconds. Using the formula:
\[ IPS = \frac{500}{100} = 5 \]
So, the items per second (IPS) is 5.
