Determine the number of possibilities to reach each of the intersections marked $ A$, $ B$, $ C$, and $ D$, respectively, when setting off at the intersection Galois Avenue/Gauss Street $ K$ and choosing the shortest possible route. (Routes with the same number of intersections are considered to be of equal length.) Take into account that the 2 shaded intersections of Cea Place are closed.


Answer:

From K to A there exist possibilities.
From K to B there exist possibilities.
From K to C there exist possibilities.
From K to D there exist possibilities.
