40 men were employed in a farm, and they produced an average of 30 tonnes of cassava per person. Calculate the total product.

  • A. 1,300 tonnes
  • B. 1,100 tonnes
  • C. 1,200 tonnes
  • D. 1,400 tonnes

Correct Answer: C. 1,200 tonnes

Explanation

The total product can be calculated by multiplying the number of workers by the average product per worker. In this case, 40 men produced an average of 30 tonnes of cassava each. Therefore, the total product is 40 men * 30 tonnes/man = 1,200 tonnes.
