Assigning the resource based on the activity with the greatest number of successor tasks means assigning the resource to the activity with the most number of activities dependent on it. In this case, Activity B has the most successor tasks (3), followed by Activities A and D with 2 each, and Activity C with 1. Therefore, Activity B should get first use of the resource.
