In a steam power plant 1000 Btu/s is added at 1200 F in the boiler, 580 Btu/s

Question:

In a steam power plant 1000 Btu/s is added at 1200 F in the boiler, 580 Btu/s is taken out at 100 F in the condenser and the pump work is 20 Btu/s. Find the plant thermal efficiency. Assume the same pump work and heat transfer to the boiler as given, how much turbine power could be produced if the plant were running in a Carnot cycle?
