We conclude that for the matrices A_{3\times 3} and A_{3\times 4}, defining the 3\times 3 and 3\times 4 transportation problems, we have u(A_{3\times 3})=g(A_{3\times 3})=9 and u(A_{3\times 4})=g(A_{3\times 4})\geq 27. Moreover, we prove u(A_{a,b})=g(A_{a,b})=2(a+b)/\gcd(a,b) for positive integers a,b and A_{a,b}=(\begin{smallmatrix} 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 0 & a & b & a+b \end{smallmatrix}).9 pagesCommutative AlgebraCombinatoricstext
