Linear Arrangement with Constraints
In a textile workshop, cardboard boxes arranged in a row will pass sequentially through two machines that perform labeling.
The first machine writes NORMAL CUT on the first two cardboards, NARROW CUT on the next two cardboards, and continues in this way, writing NORMAL CUT on two cardboards and NARROW CUT on two cardboards in sequence, labeling the cardboards and sending them to the second machine. The second machine labels the first cardboard with S, the second cardboard with M, the third cardboard with L, and continues in this way, labeling the cardboards sequentially with S, M, and L.
Accordingly, what is the label of the 175th cardboard coming out of the second machine?
A) NORMAL CUT M B) NARROW CUT M C) NORMAL CUT S D) NARROW CUT L E) NORMAL CUT L
