Q. 5

A company produces three products, each of which must be processed through three different departments. Given table summarizes the hours required per unit of each product in each department. In addition, the weekly capacities are stated for each department in terms of work-hours available. What is desired is to determine whether there are any combinations of the three products which would exhaust the weekly capacities of the three departments.
