In one year, 124 out of 3456 infant births in a hospital resulted in complications.

1. What is the process yield?

{(Total number of opportunities - total number of defects)/Total number of opportunities}*100

(3456 - 124)/3456 = 0.9641

= 96.4%

1. What is the process sigma?

3.30

1. If the maximum acceptable number of annual complications is 50, what value of standard deviation would be desired for 6 sigma operation?

Yield= (3456-50)/3456 = 98.55%

Sigma = 3.675

1. What would be the resulting yield?

98.55%
