I feel like Service Q might be the best option based on the worst-case contributions, but I need to verify that against the others.

If I recall correctly, we should look for the highest minimum contribution among the services. I just hope I remember how to find those values correctly.

I think we practiced a similar question where we had to evaluate options based on minimum outcomes. I’ll need to double-check my calculations.

I remember the maximin criterion focuses on the worst-case scenario, but I’m not sure how to apply it here.
