Explanation / Answer

32) Six employees assemble 450 dining table chairs per five days week.

So output = 450 chairs

Labor input = 6 workers

Work day = 5 days

Labor productivity = output / labor input / work days

= 450 chairs / 6 workers / 5 days

= 75 chairs per workers / 5days

= 15 chairs / workers / day

So the answer is option E
