Answer Choice (D)
Could you please show me why answer choice (D), ...cannot spend more than 4 days..., is not the correct answer? From the rules and the question stem, it must be true that you cannot spend more than 4 days in country Z.

Hi @Miller, thanks for your post. Did you have the opportunity to watch the video setup and question explanations for this game? You can access them by selecting the video icon in the top right hand corner when viewing the question.

Yes and if I remember correctly, the explanation stopped at the correct answer and did not give attention to why D was incorrect :-)

Can't Hannah spend more than 4 days in Nomo??
MillerNovember 2, 2017
No. I got that. My mistake was mixing days with cities. Hannah could spend up to 8 days in country Z but could visit up to 4 cities in country Y.

@Miller, glad you figured it out.
@allisonchetta, Four days is the maximum amount of time that Hannah can spend in Nomo (a specific city in Country X). Four days is NOT the maximum amount of time that Hannah can spend in Country X total. The question tells us that Hannah "spends as many days as possible in Nomo and as few days as possible in each of the other cities that she visits." We know that Hannah visits a total of 6 cities, one of which is Nomo. Let's look at the other 5 cities she visits. From the question we know that we want her to spend as few days as possible in these 5 cities, and from the game setup we know that she must spend a minimum of 2 days in each city. So, let's assign 2 days to the 5 other cities Hannah will visit. This totals to 10 days. From the game setup, we know that Hannah has 14 days total to spend, so we have 4 days left. Therefore, we will assign these 4 days to Nomo.
