Why cant J be in 1

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.
