Using proportions, it is found that 375 products are produced with 15 workers in 5 hours.
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
In this problem, we have that the rule of three are given as follows:
1000 products - 20 workers - 10 hours.
x products - 15 workers - 5 hours.
The measures are direct proportional, hence:
[tex]\frac{1000}{x} = \frac{20}{15} \times \frac{10}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{1000}{x} = \frac{40}{15}[/tex]
Applying cross multiplication:
40x = 15(1000)
x = 15(1000)/40
x = 375.
375 products are produced with 15 workers in 5 hours.
