Instructions: please solve showing all the work  The Springfield School Board of Trustees has decided to close one of its schools upon completion this school year and reassign all students in these grades to the other three schools in middle education. The school district provides buses for all education students mean they have to travel more than about a mile, so the council wants a plan to reassign students that minimizes the total cost of bus transportation. The cost per year per student transported by bus from each of the six residential areas of the city to each of the schools is shown in the following table (along with other basic data for next year), where 0 indicates that transportation is not required and a dash indicates that there is a assignment not feasible.

 Table 2. Cycle time and cost per hour

	Number of Students	School 1	School 2	School 3
Area 1	450	300	700	0
Area 2	600	-	400	500
Area 3	550	600	300	200
Area 4	350	200	500	-
Area 5	500	0	-	400
Area 6	450	500	300	0
	Capacity	900	1100	1000

Solve the previous problem by initializing with the least cost method. What is your recommendation to the school board?
