• B contributes more to the net profit , even though A packs more.
  A takes 20 min for each which means in 8 hrs he can make (8*60=480)480/20=24 packs
  B takes 24 min for each which means in 8 hrs he can make (8*60=480)480/24=20 packs
  C takes 30 min for each which means in 8 hrs he can make (8*60=480)480/30=16 packs
  D takes 40 min for each which means in 8 hrs he can make (8*60=480)480/40=12packs
  E is not in options so I am leaving
  Now, A makes 24 and hence company earns 24*100=2400 but he charges 66 for each one so he charges 66*24=1584. hence profit for the company is 2400-1584=816
  Now, B makes 20 and hence company earns 20*100=2000 but he charges 52 for each one so he charges 52*20=1040. hence profit for the company is 2000-1040=960
  Similarly for C we have 864 and D 816. Hence B contributes for more profit
