Which payment system is best?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Choose according to user preferences, local availability, management capability and the cost of supporting the system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>4. Why should washer and dryer numbers be balanced?<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An imbalance can create queues even when total washing capacity appears adequate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>5.
