    None of the splits are efficient

    Explanation:

    None of the splits are efficient

    Reason: This is because all the three players value the big room at the highest, medium room as medium and small room at lowest. All the three wish to have big room in order to maximize their payoffs and utility. Giving big room to one and medium to another and small to another without anyone paying extra cost will lead to envy.
