The sandwich line — Trading Post · Demand & Supply
Four friends at Pebble Cove must make 40 sandwiches for the harbour picnic. Each one could make whole sandwiches alone, or they could split the work into steps.
Your task
Organise the team so the work is quick and fair.
- Splitting a job into steps, with each person doing one step, is called division of labour. People get quicker at a task they repeat.
- Invented stories to learn from. Prices and shops in them are made up, and this is not financial advice. Ask a trusted adult before buying or selling anything for real.
- Never share personal or payment details online. Nothing about you is collected.
Score
- Understanding trade — You understood how this part of trade works.
- Wise choices — You weighed your options before choosing.
- Fair play — You treated buyers and sellers fairly.
In real life
Workshops and factories have used division of labour for centuries because it lets the same people make more in the same time.
