number of worker's per factory in industry 3 : 5656/32 = 176.75
number of worker's per factory in industry 4 : 1099/30 = 36.63
number of worker's per factory in industry 5 : 7508/78 = 96.25
number of worker's per factory in industry 6 : 3333/39 =85.46
number of worker's per factory in industry 7 : 15670/300 = 52.23
