Question 2
How could Hannah split her two extra days between cities in two countries (5-5-4, which the answer explanation states is possible) when the instructions state she must spend two days in each city?

The instructions tell us that Hannah visits a total of six cities and spends at least two days in each city she visits. Therefore, it is entirely possible that Hannah spends 3 days in a city, which is what is required by the 5-5-4 itinerary.
Country X (5 days) City 1 - 2 days City 2 - 3 days
Country Y (5 days) City 1 - 2 days City 2 - 3 days
Country Z (4 days) City 1 - 2 days City 2 - 2 days
Hope this helps! Please let us know if you have any further questions.

Hi Shayla, I confess I'm not sure what is going on in the previous explanation (it seems like they were replying to a different question) but I would say we could do 6-4-4 itinerary Country X (6 days) city 1 - 4 days city 2- 2 days
Country Y and Z ( the same, 4 days each) city 1 - 2 days city 2- 2 days
Overall we'd have a 4, 2, 2, 2, 2, 2 array of cities. That's how we get to 6 for the answer to this question
