A a fast$-$food restaurant, they have one large stove for cooking beef patties. This step "cooking patties" is one of the stages in the process that the restaurant follows for making burgers. Here is what we know about this stage:

It is a large stove that holds $30$ patties.

On the stove, the patties cook in $120$ seconds.

For simplicity, we will assume that the day runs from $10am$ to $8pm$; and there is no time lost as the cooked patties are picked up and new ones are placed on the stove.

With this scenario, what is the cycle time for this stage?

$4$ seconds

$120$ seconds

$600$ minutes

$3600$ seconds
