The uploaded image contains transportation problems with supply, demand, and cost matrices. There are steps mentioned for solving these problems using the following methods:

1. Northwest Corner Method (NWM) and Vogel's Approximation Method (VAM) for the Initial Feasible Solution (IFS).
2. Optimization of the IFS using the MODI (Modified Distribution Method).
3. Another case mentions the Least Cost Method (LCM) for finding the IFS, followed by optimization using MODI.

The second table asks, "What does MODI stand for?" The MODI stands for "Modified Distribution Method," which is used for optimizing transportation problems by calculating opportunity costs.

Would you like a detailed explanation of any specific step, or do you want me to solve one of these transportation problems using the mentioned methods?

Here are 5 related questions to expand your understanding:

1. What is the mathematical principle behind the Northwest Corner Method?
2. How does the Vogel’s Approximation Method (VAM) prioritize allocations?
3. Why is MODI considered efficient for optimizing transportation problems?
4. What is the difference between LCM and VAM in generating the initial solution?
5. Can you explain the relationship between opportunity costs and transportation optimization?

Tip: When solving transportation problems, always check for degeneracy (total allocations = rows + columns - 1) to ensure the solution is valid.
