Selected Answer: C
Increase cost BY 61. Keyword BY, not TO 61. When you increase BY 61, total becomes 81 which is what you want to achieve.

I detest how these are worded sometimes. Technically speaking, if you increase the cost TO 61, then the cost of the link = 61 (in which case, it doesn't use the R1-R2 link). However, if you increase the cost BY 61, then the cost of the link = 81 (20+61). This is just splitting hairs over semantics, but the question is worded incorrectly.

Basically due to the lowest cost the path it is taking before the change is R6-R5-R2-R3-R1 Increasing the cost by 61 makes the total cost 81>80 so it will prefer R1

What sol_ls95 said is incorrect. This would make 6-5-2-1= 81 and 6-5-2-3-1=80.

The calculation for d is wrong or probably a typo, 6-5-2-3-1=80. Thus the solution is C.

On each suggestion, try replace the cost with the suggested one, then sum from R6 all the way to R1. You'll find that answer C presents the lowest cost possible to choose the path R5>R2>R1
