I II III IV
A 7 25 26 10
B 12 27 3 25
C 37 18 17 14
D 18 25 23 9

Subtract the `square` element of each `square` from every element of that `square`

Subordinates Required hours for task
I II III IV
A 0 18 19 3
B 9 24 0 22
C 23 4 3 0
D 9 16 14 0

Subtract the smallest element in each column from `square` of that column.

Subordinates Required hours for task
I II III IV
A `square` `square` 19 `square`
B `square` `square` 0 `square`
C `square` `square` 3 `square`
D `square` `square` 14 `square`

The lines covering all zeros is `square` to the order of matrix `square`

The assignment is made as follows:

Subordinates Required hours for task
I II III IV
A 0 14 19 3
B 9 20 0 22
C 23 0 3 0
