     1                  4                       97                      24.25

     2                 3                       69                      23

     3                 4                       97                      24.25

     4                 2                       50                      25

     5                 3                       63                      21

     6                 2                       52                     26

Note: Productivity = Yards Installed / Crew size

b. Examining the above results, one sees that the productivity is highest (25 and 26) when the crew size was the lowest. Hence, a conclusion could be made that the smaller the crew size, the higher the productivity.
