Hi there!
While you're correct that in the hypothetical that proves B correct, M and R are equidistant from the corner, D isn't a correct answer.
B says that M is separated from the corner by exactly 2 cubicles. D says R is separated from the corner by exactly 3.
The diagram that proves B is:
M
Q
P
S ( T V) R
Consider the parentheses around TV to indicate a "cloud": we don't know which is closer to the corner but we know that together, they occupy those two cubicles.
In this diagram, both M and R are separated from the corner by two cubicles, not three.
Hope this helps!
