Please show explicit steps for Q3. :)

A distribution center uses a two-step process to fill orders. Each order must be processed through step 1 and step 2, in that order. Tomorrow's work will consist of filling the seven orders as shown below (in minutes). Job Time in Step 1 Time in Step 2 A 12 14 B 9 13 C 20 8. D 17 15 E 16 18 F 22 17 G 13 14 1. [4 marks] Determine the sequence in which the orders should be processed so that the makespan can be minimized. 2. (8 marks] Construct a chart showing the sequence of the orders in each step. What is the optimal makespan, and what is the total idle time? 3. [4 marks] An error has been found for the estimated time of conducting step 1 of order B. After the error has been corrected, the optimal job sequence determined above is not affected. What is the range of values for the time in step 1 of order B
