I talked to NMC about that question, check the discussion forum for the lab.

Basically,

bandwidth 4 6 5 5
This set the ratio between four queues (in terms of bandwidth)
You could have written...
bandwidth 20 30 25 25
It's the same.

Next they map the cos values to the four queues.

Then, it kinda messes up, I think they're going to adjust the question.
When you set
priority-queue out
this tells the switch to prioritise queue 4. Queue 4 is now the expidite
queue. It is serviced until it is empty and then the other queues are
serviced. So in the example anything with COS 3 is serviced first.
However, when you use this, it effectively changes
bandwidth 4 6 5 5
to
bandwidth 4 6 5 0
So queues 1,2 & 3 now have 26.7%, 40% and 33.3% of the bandwidth WHEN
THERE IS NOTHING IN QUEUE 4.
