Solution 2

The term “total product” refers to the total number of units produced by all (fixed and variable) factors. Since the fixed factors remain constant, the total product is a function of the variable factors in the short term.

Symbolically:

TP = f(Q), where TP = Total Product

Q = Quantity of variable factors

f = Functional relation
