  1. hours while each unit of product C requires 2, 4, 5 hours respectively in the three departments. Every day, 60 hours are available in fabrication department, 72 hours in the finishing department and 100 hours in the packaging department. If the unit contribution of product A is ETB 5, of product B is ETB 10, and of product C is ETB 8, determine the number of units of each of the products, which should be made each day to maximize the total contribution. Also determine if any capacity would remain unutilized. 
    1. Write the formulation for this linear program.
    2. Solve the Linear programming problem using simplex method.
