Six Sigma Quizzes Online & Trivia

We can expect 3.4 defects per million opportunities. .4 ppm means that the opportunities or likelihood that the product/process will fail is 3.4 in a million. like for an instance when you bought a single lottery ticket. the chances of winning is only 3.4 out in a million or 0.00034%. in terms of defects the chances that the single product/process fails is only 3.4 out in a million. it is totally different of saying that producing one million parts you are expecting 3.4 defects which a lot of people misinterpret. If the DPMO figure was factual data, and not the random value i came up with for my perfect example, would it be safe to say, that a computerized production line that printed Colorado Lottery Scratch Game Tickets, did so with a 3.1DPMO, and level 6 excellent, and not just of good quality. and then add that this game not only looks beautiful but it also has a 1:5 overall winning odds, then odds of winning a top prize jackpot is a 1.8 ppm. is it safe to compare the ppm to DPMO, cause id say the printing process is extremely flawed if the DPMO exceeded the ppm of odds of winning yop prizes. if theres the chance that the defectedtickets that didnt print could actuallt be the top prize winners, and change the odds of winning to odds of losing.

The answer is A. 2, 5, 1, 4, 3, Define, Measure, Analyze, Improve, Control Six Sigma is a disciplined, data-driven approach and methodology for eliminating defects (driving toward six standard deviations between the mean and the nearest specification limit) in any process – from manufacturing to transactional and from product to service. In a nutshell, here are the key principles of Lean Six Sigma Business Transformation to bear in mind: Focus on the customer. Identify and understand how the work gets done (the value stream). Manage, improve and smooth the process flow. Remove Non-Value-Added steps and waste. Manage by fact and reduce variation. Critical to Quality (CTQ) Trees help you translate broad customer needs into specific, actionable, measurable performance requirements. You can then use these requirements to deliver high quality products and services. CTQ Trees were originally developed as part of the Six Sigma methodology.

"Six Sigma is a quality program that, when all is said and done, enhances your client's understanding, brings down your costs, and assembles better pioneers. It tries to enhance the nature of the yield of a procedure by distinguishing and evacuating the reasons for absconds and limiting changeability in assembling and business forms. It utilizes an arrangement of value administration strategies, principally observational , measurable techniques, and makes a unique foundation of individuals inside the association who are specialists in these strategies. Every Six Sigma venture completed inside an association takes after a characterized arrangement of steps and has particular esteem focuses, for instance: decrease process duration, lessen contamination, diminish costs, increment consumer loyalty, and increment benefits.

Geometric Mean is not a Measure of Central Tendency. There are three types of Measures of Central Tendency. Let's talk about them one-by-one: 1. Arithmetic Mean: It is the total sum of all observations of a data set divided by the total number of observations. It is also called arithmetic average. 2. Median: It is the middle value in the given data set after arranging them in ascending or descending order. 3. Mode: Mode is the most common value that occurs in the distribution.  

The answer to this is D. You should not continue as it will be harder for you to figure out what the special causes in a control chart is. You have to know and determine what the special causes are and you have to make an effort to eliminate them. If there are a lot, then eliminate them one by one. If you would continue taking data measurements, the special causes may worsen and may even multiply. You also cannot just figure out what the special causes are, then go through the process like as if nothing happened. You need to eliminate them to be sure that you will not encounter other issues in the long run.

The standard deviation is actually a mathematical representation of how spread out the numbers is. If you need to calculate it, it is the square root of the variance. Now variance is basically the average of the squared differences that are calculated from the mean. Therefore, if we want to calculate the variance, using these two values we simply subtract 6 from 10 and add 6 to ten. This will give us the range over which the actual tolerance lies around the mean. This results in an answer of 4 to 16. This means that the true answer is anywhere from four to 16, 6 units on either side of the mean.

The answer to this is E. There are different problems that exist right now because the signs were not looked into immediately. Some problems are resolved easily because the issues were found and discussed as soon as they become available. In order to do this type of method, the question of why should be repeated until the root cause is found. There is a need to define the problem, measure just how grave the problem is, analyze how the problem can possibly be resolved and also analyze various details about the problem in general. Once the problem has been identified, other Whys should still be asked to know how the situation can be improved and how the situation can be under control.

Find the areas of the z score, add them together you get .0913%

The Process Capability is also known as CP, CPK. This signified Process Capability Index. This is a statistical measurement that is used in order to figure out the ability of the process to occur within the expected limits. The CP measures the potential capability of the process while the CPK will show if the process has the ability to meet the expectations that have been set. There are some people who compute for this with the use of Microsoft Excel. There are also others who use different programs in order to figure out what the results are going to be.

According to my knowledge, answer will be: Bell-shaped, symmetrical about the mean, a single mode.

The correct answer to this question is D. A median is the central point of data arranged on a scale of some sort, oftentimes a scale of numbers. For example, the median of this set of numbers {2,5,10} is 5. Finding the median means finding the center value of all of the values present. If there is an even number of values, then the average of the two center values is calculated. Open-ended questions do not provide answers that can be easily compared evenly on a scale, therefore making that a disadvantage of using a median.

C is the proper answer to this which refers to the histogram. There are different types of charts that are available right now and they are meant to be used for various purposes. There are some that are well-known to people who use graphs all the time. Some people are only familiar with a select few. A histogram is known to be accurate and it can provide the information about the frequency that is needed by the person creating and analyzing the chart. It may sometimes be mistaken as a bar graph because of its appearance but the bar graph has to compare two variables and their effect with each other. A histogram only makes use of one variable and takes note of the frequency of the variable.
