Hi @NicoleWebb831,

Happy to help!

J cannot be in position 1 because the question stem tells us that G and H must be scheduled as far apart as possible.

We know that F must be inspected on either Day 1 or Day 6. Therefore, there are two possibilities.

If F is scheduled on Day 1, then G and H must be scheduled on Day 2 and Day 6.

If F is scheduled on Day 6, then G and H must be scheduled on Day 1 and Day 5.

Therefore, the only three factories which can be inspected on Day 1 are F, G, or H.

Hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any further questions.
