The Marginal Rate of Technical Substitution (MRTS) represents the rate at which one input can be substituted for another, while keeping output constant. It is calculated as the ratio of the marginal products of the two inputs involved. As we move rightward and downward along a convex-shaped isoquant, the MRTS declines due to the principle of diminishing marginal returns.
