A Company manufactures two products X and Y by means of two process A and B. The maximum capacity of process A is 17500hours and of process B 400hrs. Each unit of product X requires 3hours in A and 2 Hours in B, while each unit of product Y requires I hour in A and 4 hours in B. How many units of products X and Y are produced if the maximum capacity is utilized?

Answer 1

A = 17500h
B = 400h

X
• A = 3h
• B = 2

X
• 3 = 1
• 2 = 1

A = 17500 / 3 = 5833.33 or 5833
B = 400 / 2 = 200

5833 + 200 = 6033

-------------------------------

Y
• A = 1
• B = 4

Y
• 1 = 1
• 4 = 1

A = 17500 / 1 = 17500
B = 400 / 4 = 100

17500 + 100 = 17600
