Solver Ops Research Class 1

The document appears to be describing an optimization problem to maximize profit by determining the optimal number of chairs and tables to produce given constraints on production capacity. The objective is to maximize total profit from chair and table sales. The solver needs to find the number of chairs and tables to make while satisfying constraints on carpentry hours, painting hours, and minimum sales quantities for chairs and tables. The optimal solution was found to be producing 4.2 chairs and 2.4 tables to maximize total profit of 0.78.
