Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Productivity is calculated as output divided by input. Initially, with inputs of $100 and outputs of $750, productivity is $750/$100 = 7.5, which simplifies to 15:2. If the company reduces its input by half to $50, the productivity becomes $750/$50 = 15, which simplifies to 15:1.
