Each of these nine persons will work for exactly 10 hr a day. Each of the May Flower uniforms requires 20 min for cutting the fabric, 1 hr for stitching, and 15 min for stitching buttons and button holes, whereas the Little Flower uniform requires 30 min, 1 hr, and 30 min respectively for these activities.

Explanation:

Hiring one more assistance increases the time available for stitching buttons and button holes.
Max. No. of uniform those cutter can cut for Mayflower in a day = 1200/20 = 60
Time required by Tailors to stitch 60 uniforms = (60 x 60) = 3600 mins, whereas time available is 3000 mins only.
Hence maximum No. of uniform that can be stitched in a day = 3000/60 = 50
Time consumed by assistant to stitch buttons to 50 uniform = (50 x 50) = 750 mins
Time available for assistant = (3 x 10 x 60) = 1800 mins.
So, 50 uniforms can be completed in a day.

Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
