The marginal revenue product (MRP) of labor for the sixth worker is calculated by finding the additional output produced by the sixth worker and multiplying it by the price at which each sandwich is sold. The fifth worker produces 25 sandwiches, and the sixth worker produces 28 sandwiches, so the additional output is 3 sandwiches. Since each sandwich sells for $10, the MRP is 3 sandwiches * $10/sandwich = $30.
