An airport is trying to balance where to place the three subgroups (local (A), regional (B), and national (C)) for an airline. The distance between terminals and the number of trips that travelers make between subgroups for flight connections per day are listed. Find the assignment that minimizes the distance travelers must walk.

Airline   A   B   C
Trips to A   -   60   80
Trips to B   50   -   120
Trips to C   100   75   -
Terminal   1   2   3
Distance to Terminal 1   -   4000   5000
Distance to Terminal 2   4000   -   6000
Distance to Terminal 3   5000   6000   -
