In studies of the showering habits of the male Homo sapiens,
Proctor & Gamble found that males were accessing specialty shower products kept in the shower by their female partners.
Proctor & Gamble realized that men were not necessarily Neanderthals and that even men who were not style-oriented would pay a premium for specialty products such as soap for men only. Proctor & Gamble developed and deployed the Dial for Men line of products including soaps. Dial for Men costs more than regular soap. If Dial for Men lasts longer than regular soap, then the increased price would be worth the expense. How many days does a Dial for Men bar last? Each bar of Dial for Mean was used by a single person. The number of days each bar of soap lasted is recorded in the table.
