ANSWER:Step 1 of 3
Given figure is
The length of a shortest path joining two vertices in a network is the degree of separation of the two vertices.
The shortest path connecting vertices D and J is
D – G – H – J
The length of this path is 3.
So, the degrees of separation between the vertices D and J is 3.
