Here is the thing about MSR questions - you must compile the data on your scratch pad as much as possible. Yes, it will take an extra couple of mins but it will ensure that you answer the questions correctly and quickly. Overall you may not end up spending more than 2.5 mins per question and that is great for MSR!
So here is how I will make my notes as I read Tab 2:
Supers - C, K, L J (x Cubicles)
Together:
A - J - M
S - C - E
P - L - C (I see a problem here as I write this. C must be surrounded by S and E but it must be next to L too. So there will be limited places for C)
R - K
Now I will focus solely on Tab 3 and look at the questions.
Question 1. Based on the information and workspace assignment rules provided, how many employees are there, each of whom could be assigned to office 112?112 has only one office adjacent to it. So none from the triplets above can possibly take that office. So A, J, M S, C, E P and L are out i.e. 8 people are out. There are total 10 people. So 2 (R/K) can take that office.
Answer 2
Question 2. For each of the following situations, select Yes if, based on the information and workspace assignment rules provided, it would PREVENT some employees from being assigned workspace using the current rules. Otherwise, select No.Mei, Pablo, and Selena need offices because the projects they work on require the highest levels of security.Cubicles must be taken by reportees only (who are not supervisors too) so A-M and S-E must take the pair of cubicles. Hence J must be in 121 and C must be in 120 so that L can take 117.
Hence S cannot be in an office. Hence, in this new situation, the given constraints cannot work. Answer YES.
Two additional employees are hired and will be supervised by Jamal.J already has 2 reportees. With 4 reportees, J cannot be placed in any office along with C's restrictions. Answer YES.
Richard resigns his position at Metro Research.If an employee reduces, an office/cubicle would become empty. That is not against any constraint. Answer NO.
