Making a table takes 12 hours of work while a chair takes only 6 hours of work. The company has to produce a minimum number of tables and chairs. Is this problem a linear programming problem(LPP)? If yes then solve it. If no then first convert it to a LPP with more information and then solve the resultant problem.
