Exam OMG-OCUP2-FOUND100 Topic 1 Question 26 Discussion

The diagram shows a package Pckg that includes two classes G and H with a one-to-many association between them. The multiplicity '1..5' near class G on the 'gh' association end suggests that for each H object, there should be between 1 to 5 associated G objects. However, the '*' (multiplicity many) near class H on the 'gh' association end indicates that a G object can be associated with zero or more H objects. This implies that it's possible to have a G object that is not associated with any H object.
