Complete Question Explanation

The correct answer choice is (C)

This Local question stipulates that a workpiece is worked on by only two of the four employees in the course of the entire workweek. Our templates reveal that only K and L could transfer the same workpiece back-and-forth, which proves answer choice (C) correct:

The way I thought about this question is by looking at the transfers that cannot happen. So, for choices A and B, these would both require K or L to transfer to J at some point, which we are told cannot happen. For choices D and E, these would both require M to transfer to K or L at some point which cannot happen since M always transfers to J. From this, I was able to use process of elimination to choose C. Is this a reasonable way of approaching this question? Just want to make sure I didn't get lucky and it was accurate.
