Each of the Wimbledon towels require forty minutes for cutting the towel fabric, two hours for dyeing and screen printing, forty minutes for border stitching and monogramming, and ten minutes for folding, packing and sealing.

There are twenty cutters with Christy’s, who will put in 10*20 = 200 man hours of work per day, which is equivalent to cutting 200/(40/60) = 300 towel fabrics for Wimbledon towels.

There are fifty printers with Christy’s, who will put in 10*50 = 500 man hours of work per day, which is equivalent to dyeing and screen printing on  500/2 = 250 Wimbledon towels.

There are twenty stitchers with Christy’s, who will put in 10*20 = 200 man hours of work per day, which is equivalent to stitching and monogramming on  200/(40/60) = 300 Wimbledon towels.

There are five packers with Christy’s, who will put in 10*5 = 50 man hours of work per day, which is equivalent to folding, packing and sealing of 50/(10/60) = 300 Wimbledon towels.

Hence the maximum number of Wimbledon towels that Christy’s can complete in a day = 250
