First, restating the problem: the question asks for the total product (total output) of the first two workers, Sajani and Kai, and provides four options: a. 2, b. 3, c. 5, d. 0.
Option a: 2. This would imply that the combined output of Sajani and Kai is only 2 units. That would be unusually low if each worker contributes some positive amount, and it would require both to underperform or cancel each other out in a way that yields only 2 total units. Unless there is a strong constraint or negative synergy, this seems implausible as a total production figure for two workers.
Option b: 3. Similar to option a, a total output of 3 from two workers would indicate a very small combined contribution. If each worker typically produces more than 1 unit, 3 would again suggest underutilization or inefficiency, making this choice less likely without additional context.
Option c: 5. This option asserts a total output of 5 units from Sajani and Kai together. If we assume each worker contributes non-negligible output and there is no negative interaction that would reduce total production, 5 could be a plausible sum of two individuals’ outputs. The presence of this option as a middle value often reflects a reasonable aggregate production in basic examples.
Option d: 0. This would mean the two workers together produce nothing, which contradicts the premise that they are workers contributing to output unless both are idle or fully ineffective. In standard production problems, a total output of zero for two active workers would require extraordinary circumstances and is generally rejected unless explicitly stated.
Now, considering the provided answer field lists "c. 5" as the correct option, the reasoning above aligns with the notion that a moderate positive total of 5 units is more plausible than 2, 3, or 0 given two workers contributing to output. The other choices are less consistent with typical production scenarios where workers contribute positively unless special constraints apply.
In summary, option a suggests too low a total, option b is also low and unlikely without context, option d implies no output at all which contradicts the active-work premise, while option c represents a reasonable positive total that fits common expectations for two workers producing together. The explicit answer key provided designates c. 5 as the correct choice.
