Can anyone walk me through this question?
3phase induction motor and a 3 phase synchronous motor are connected to a 480V system. the synchronous motor, operating at 8kVA, 480V, 60 Hz is overexcited producing a leading pf of 0.7. the induction motor draws current of 14.43 A and has a lagging pf of 0.6. the system load pf is most nearly? answer is 0.96 but I can't follow the solution guide as they skip way to many steps.
