That's correct. The vertices B and D needed to have an odd degree, so the shortest route between the other two odd vertices (12) had to be added to the total weight of the edges in the graph. The start vertex was B.

WHOOP WHOOP! loved this exam! :biggrin:

Did you get 520 for the profit aswell?

I got £515 in the exam for some reason, but the answer is definitely £520 :smile:

Ah okay, I'm curious why you think it's definitely 520? I really hope it is lol

I checked the answer on Wolfram Alpha. I've copied the link below if you want to check for yourself :smile:

Not too bad, I find the algorithms and techniques to be simple, however the difficult part for me is needing to apply knowledge in some questions rather than just getting on with the working :s-smilie:
