    Let x = current producton rate in vol/hour.

    Then the current production volume in 7 days is

    V = (24*7) x = 168x

    The targeted production increase is 10%, so the new weekly volume is

    1.1 * (168x) = 184.8x

    Let y = the extra hours required to meet the new targeted volume. Therefore

    (168 + y) x = 184.8x

    Divide by x.

    168 + y = 184.8

    y = 184.8 - 168 = 16.8 hours

    Answer:

    For the week:

    The scheduled hours is 184.8

    The extra hours is 16.8
