Four partners are dividing a piece of land that each see as worth $124,000 among themselves.  They use the lone-divider method.  This time Derek is the divider, and creates the parcels S1, S2, S3, and S4.  The following table shows the value of the parcels in the eyes of each partner.   S1 S2 S3 S4 Alison $27,000 $35,000 $29,000 $33,000 Ben $30,000 $32,000 $25,000 $37,000 Cailyn $29,000 $37,000 $28,000 $30,000 Derek $31,000 $31,000 $31,000 $31,000 What happens next according to lone-divider? Group of answer choices Alison gets S4, Cailyn gets S2, Ben and Derek have to recombine S1 and S3 and play Divider-Chooser Derek gets one of S1 or S3. The other players recombine the remaining pieces and re-divide. Alison gets S2, Ben gets S1, Cailyn gets S4, Derek gets S3 Alison gets S3, Ben gets S2, Cailyn gets S4, Derek gets S1 There is no way to resolve this according to Lone Divider

Alison takes S4 and the other there must re-divide the re-combined piece from S1, S2, S3. Alison gets S4, Derek gets S3. Ben and Cailyn recombine S1 and S2 and play divider-chooser. There is no way to resolve this according to Lone Divider. .
