Lao's average weekly productivity is 1,250 (25 x 50) cartons; Lamar's average weekly productivity is 2,500 (50 x 50) cartons, and as a team, their average weekly productivity is 1,875 (1,250 + 2,500)/2 cartons.

What is productivity?

Productivity is the measure of the output versus the input.  The input, in this case, is the labor hours.  The output is the number of cartons produced by each worker per week.

Data and Calculations:

Number of cartons filled per hour by Lao = 25 cartons

Number of cartons filled per hour by Lamar = 50 cartons

Number of hours per workweek = 50 hours

Total productivity by Lao = 1,250 cartons (25 x 50)

Total productivity by Lamar = 2,500 cartons (50 x 50)

Total productivity by both workers = 3,750 cartons (1,250 + 2,500)

Average productivity per week = 1,875 cartons (3,750/2)

Thus, Lao's average weekly productivity is 1,250 (25 x 50) cartons; Lamar's average weekly productivity is 2,500 (50 x 50) cartons, and as a team, their average weekly productivity is 1,875 (1,250 + 2,500)/2 cartons.
