Suggested Answer: B 🗳️
Just check each rule against the choices to see how the various choices violate those rules. Rule 1 says that F comes before J, so scan for a choice that has J before F. Choice E. has J before F, in violation of Rule 1, so cross off E. Scanning for a choice that violates Rule 2, we find choice C., where M and G are separated by two other lines. Rule 3 is violated by choice A., which has H in spot 5, not 1 or 7. And Rule 4 is violated by choice D., which has S in 3, not 4. The only choice left standing is B., which is the correct answer.
