The average product is calculated by dividing the total product by the number of workers. For 15 workers, the total product is 420, so the average product is 420/15 = 28. For 10 workers, the marginal product is 30, so the total product for 10 workers is 10 * 30 = 300, making the average product 300/10 = 30. Thus, the average product decreases from 30 to 28.
