Solution:

The principle of the learning curve shows that the period to perform a task is multiplied by a set number.

With this question, we generated the second unit,

So that we can approximate the percentage of learning from the first unit

= (Unit 2 time) / (Unit 1 time)

= 11/13

= 0.84 ≅ 1

1 Unit would be the estimate of the learning percentage in this process
