A company produces a product which is designed to weigh 10 oz. ,with a tolerance of + 0.5 oz.The process produces products with an average weight of 9.95 oz.and a standard deviation of 0.10 oz.According to the process capability ratio is the process capable of meeting design specifications?
A)No,the process capability ratio is less than 1.0
B)Yes,the process capability ratio is less than 1.0
C)No,the process capability ratio is greater than 1.0
D)Yes,the process capability ratio is greater than 1.0

The process capability ratio (Cp) is calculated as (USL - LSL) / (6 * standard deviation). Here, USL = 10.5 oz, LSL = 9.5 oz, and standard deviation = 0.10 oz. Cp = (10.5 - 9.5) / (6 * 0.10) = 1.67, which is greater than 1.0, indicating the process is capable.
