Rene · Answer 1

Working 150 hours and producing 0.2 water heater per hour, each worker produce 30 heater per month.

Explanation:

the productivity is 0.20 water heater per labor-hour

during the month an employee works 150 hours

to know the amount of water heater per laborer, we will multiply the productivity rate by the amount of hours per month

150 hours x 0.2 = 30 water heater

Each employee produces 30 water heater.
