February  2.24

April          3. 12

Explanation:

[tex]\frac{Production}{machine \times hours \: per \: machine}[/tex]

We should calcualte the total machine hours:

hours per machine x machine used and then we divide the production of the month by this amount The result is how many units of output we generate per machine hours.

January

2,100 / (297 x 2) = 3.54

February

1,600 / (178 x 4) = 2.24

March

2,600 / (371 x 3) = 2.33

April

2,800 / (299 x 3) = 3.12
