Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Without any additional information regarding demand or cost, we can assume that the optimal number of chicken tacos to prepare would be half of the total capacity constraint (i.e. 1500 tacos) since there are no additional constraints or preferences indicated. However, since none of the answer choices match 1500, we must choose the closest option, which is C (1264).
