Here you go the answer is in the picture
(-4)^2
A negative base raised to an even power gives us a positive so
4^2
4x4=16
Summary of problem.
annual production = 60000 units
work hours per worker = 200*12=2400 hours
productivity = 0.15 unit / person-hour
Need to calculate the number of workers/persons employed.
Each unit requires 1 unit / 0.15 unit/person-hour
= 1/0.15 person-hours / unit
60000 unit requires 60000 units * 1/0.15 person-hours/unit
= 400000 person-hours
400000 person-hours requires 400000 person-hours /2400 hours = 166.7 persons
=>
The plant has 167 labourers (assuming perfect attendance).
