The country with a comparative advantage in the production of a good should export the good
A country has comparative advantage in production if it produces at a lower opportunity cost when compared to other countries.

Comparative advantage in the production of scones = 1/50 = 0.02
Comparative advantage in the production of sweater = 50/1 = 50
Scotland
Comparative advantage in the production of scones = 2/40 = 0.05
Comparative advantage in the production of sweater = 40/2 = 20
