The number in the question can be read as follows: produce 40 1S1U1P1 units, then produce the 10th S1, then produce the 1st S1, then produce the 1st P0.

To produce one 1S1U1P1 unit, it takes 0.07 hours. To produce the 10th S1, it takes 0.1 hours. To produce the 1st S1, it takes 0.1 hours. To produce the 1st P0, it takes 0.3 hours.

So the total time required is:

40 units x 0.07 hours/unit + 0.1 hours + 0.1 hours + 0.3 hours = 2.9 hours

Therefore, the closest option is B) 4.4 hours.
