Adoctor's office allows thirty minutes for each appointment. after taking a one-hour lunch break, the doctor's office has a(n) of sixteen patients a day if it is open from 8: 00 a. m. to 5: 00 p. m.

The correct answer is:  capacity.

Explanation:

Capacity is the maximum amount of a given subject that can be contained within a frame. In this case, capacity refers to the maximum number of patients that can be treated per day according to the doctor's office working hours. From 8:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. there are 9 hours. Though, 1 hour must be subtracted because of the lunch break. It means the doctor's office has 8 working hours. As each appointment is 30 minutes long as maximum, it implies 2 patients can be assisted per hour. Thus in 8 hours, 16 patients (8x2) could be assisted per day, this is the capacity of the doctor's office.
