Original data
Job/ A B C D
Machine
1 7 8 8 10
2 10 9 7 6
3 11 5 9 6
4 9 11 5 8
First, we create a minimizing table by subtracting every number from 11
Job/ A B C D
Machine
1 4 2 3 1
2 1 2 4 5
3 0 6 2 5
4 2 0 6 3
then we do row subtraction:
Job/ A B C D
Machine
1 3 1 2 0
2 0 1 3 4
3 0 6 2 5
4 2 0 6 3
