A. 35 percent
B. 50 percent
C. 70 percent
D. 75 percent
E. 80 percent

Answer 1

Answer: C. 70 percent

Explanation:

Given, Time for the first unit = 50 minutes

Time for the second unit = 35 minutes

The unit improvement factor learning curve = (The time for the second unit) ÷ (time for the first unit) x 100.

So, The unit improvement factor learning curve = 35÷ 50 × 100 = 70 percent.

Hence, the correct option is "C. 70 percent".
