3 The network shows 10 towns. The times, in minutes, to travel between pairs of towns are indicated on the edges.

- Use Kruskal's algorithm, showing the order in which you select the edges, to find a minimum spanning tree for the 10 towns.
- State the length of your minimum spanning tree.
- Draw your minimum spanning tree.
- If Prim's algorithm, starting at \(B\), had been used to find the minimum spanning tree, state which edge would have been the final edge to complete the minimum spanning tree.
