Answer questions 1 & 2 based on the following information:

Mariana & Medro were thinking one day about the new healthy chicken sandwich they wanted to offer at (M&M). They wanted to make their own pita bread in a wood-burning oven and grill the chicken breasts on charcoal.

The system they designed for grilling the chicken can cook 50 chicken breasts per hour.

The system they designed for making the bread can make 80 pieces of bread per hour.

Because these two systems are new at (M&M), the person assigned to baking the bread can make a maximum of 50 pieces of bread per hour and the person assigned to cooking the chicken can make a maximum of 40 chicken breasts per hour.

Which of the following is correct:

a. the maximum number of chicken sandwiches that can be made is 50 per hour
