Answer:

The number of machine produced on Wednesday is 27.5.

Explanation:

It is given that the number of machines produced by machinist on Tuesday is 25.

The machinist's goal was to increase his production by at least 10% each day.

Therefore the number of produced machines on Wednesdays is 1% more than the number of machines produced on Tuesday.


\text{10 \% of 25}=(10)/(100)* 25=2.5

The number of machine produced on Wednesday is,


25+2.5=27.5

Therefore the number of machine produced on Wednesday is 27.5.
