Respuesta :

Answer: (d) 50%

Explanation:

Total hours invested per day  = 20

Boxes produced in a day = 400 boxes

(a) Productivity per day (Old) = 20 boxes per hour

(b) Suppose they can increase the rate to 600 boxes per day, then,

  New productivity per day = 30 boxes per hour

(c) Unit increase in productivity = 10 ​boxes per hour

(d) [tex]Percentage\ increase\ in\ productivity=\frac{New\ productivity-old\ productivity}{old\ productivity}\times100[/tex]

[tex]Percentage\ increase\ in\ productivity=\frac{30-20}{20}\times100[/tex]

                                                                     = 50%
