Assume independent factories numbered i = 1, 2, ..., N, which produces P_i units per time unit. Further assume that the probability of a factory beeing available to be p_i.

How many units per time unit can one at maximum assume beeing produced in total with a probability of, say, 80 %?

Simply divide out the effeciency ratio f=Pi/pi and list them from large to small.
Then you can find the maximum.
