    Answer: The answer is b

    Explanation:

    Since 60minutes = 1 hour

    2400 : 60

    = 40

    The total output of cars increased by 40

    The law of comparative advantage states that a country will specialise in producing commodities in which the country has greatest comparative advantage. Therefore a country will produce for export those commodities she can produce cheaply than other countries.
