A theatre company's costume workshop has six costume makers available for 7 hours each on Monday. No additional workers are available that day, and each production needs all the labour time shown to finish its costumes by the deadline.
| Production | Labour time needed |
|---|---|
| A | 18 hours |
| B | 15 hours |
| C | 12 hours |
