Answer:

Way 3 and 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The Algorithm of Brute Force

Let A is Athens,  

Let B is Buford,  

Let C is Cuming,

Let D is Dacula  

Use the "Brute Force" Algorithm to find the cheapest route to visit each city and return home again to Athens, we can see that there are 6 ways to visit each city and return home again to Athens.

Way 1: A→C→D→B→A = 50 + 30 + 70 + 70 = $220

Way 2: A→D→B→C→A = 60 + 70 + 25 + 50 = $205

Way 3: A→D→C→B→A = 60 + 30 + 25 + 70 = $185

Way 4: A→B→C→D→A = 70 + 25 + 30 + 60 = $185

Way 5: A→B→D→C→A = 70 + 70 + 30 + 50 = $220

Way 6: A→C→B→D→A = 50 + 25 + 70 + 60 = $205

Way 3 and 4 are the cheapest so we choose them.
