 » 2 months ago, # |   0 I think you are missing this line=> "Remember that each man should be paired with a woman and only monogamous families should be formed.".If you take 14(5th man with 3rd woman) then you cannot take 11(4th man with 3rd woman).The correct pairs will be like the following =>10(1st man with 2nd woman), 10(2nd man with 4th woman), 16(3rd man with 1st woman), 11(4th man with 3rd woman), and 13(5th man with 5th woman).
