Explanation / Answer

Std deviation of Filling process for 1 packet = 1.01 grams

Variance of Filling process for 1 packet = 1.01^2 = 1.0201

Variance of Filling process for 6 packets = 1.01^2 + 1.01^2 + 1.01^2 + 1.01^2 + 1.01^2 + 1.01^2 = 6.1206

Std of Filling Process for 6 packet = Std Deviation for 1 box = sqrt(6.1206) = 2.474

From the problem statement we can see-

USL = 261+11 = 272

LSL = 261-11 = 250

Average = 261

We have calculated Std Dev = 2.474

CpU = (USL-Average)/(3*Std Dev) = (272-261)/(3*2.474) = 1.482

CpL =  (Average-LSL)/(3*Std Dev) = (261-250)/(3*2.474) = 1.482

Cpk = Min(CpU,CpL) = 1.482

Since the Process Capability index Cpk is 1.482, the process is capable and hence no adjustment is required.
