The production planner for Airbus showed his boss the latest product mix suggestion from their slick new linear programming model: 12.5 model 320s and 17.4 model 340s

The boss looked over his glasses at the production planner and reminded him that they had several half airplanes from last year's production rusting in the parking lot. No one, it seems, is interested in half of an airplane. The production planner whipped out his red pen and crossed out the .5 and .4, turning the new plan into 12 model 320s and 17 model 340s. This production plan is definitely feasible.
