Consider the following scenario. Two friends, Rachel and Joey, enjoy baking bread and making apple pies. Rachel takes two hours
Brut [27]

Answer: Rachel should produce pie and Joey should produce bread.

Explanation:

Rachel can make 1 loaf of bread in 2 hours and 1 pie in 1 hour. Therefore, Rachel can take less time to produce 1 pie as compared to 1 loaf of bread, as a result she should produce pie.

Joey can make 1 loaf of bread in 4 hours and 1 pie in 4 hours. Therefore, Joey can take same time for producing either pie or bread. But he has only one option to produce bread.
