A farmer grows maize. His total cost (in Naira) for producing \(q\) tonnes is given by \(C(q)=0.1q^{2}+300\). The market price per tonne depends on the total market supply \(S\) (in tonnes) according to \(P = 1500 - 0.5S\). Other farmers together supply 2000 tonnes. Assuming the farmer sells all his output, determine the quantity \(q\) (in tonnes) that maximizes his profit. State the optimal \(q\) as an exact fraction.
