HackerEarth Architect’s Dilemma..! problem solution

YASH PAL, 31 July 2024
In this HackerEarth Architect’s Dilemma..! problem solution An Architect has been assigned a project and some number of workers work for him. Each of the workers is assigned a fixed amount of work. Suddenly, he has been appointed to build a new elegant office by the mayor. He won’t disappoint the mayor and finish the task as quickly as possible.
Now, the architect has some amount of extra work to build the new office. He wants to assign this extra work to workers in such a way that there is a maximum number of workers with the same amount of total work. It might not be possible to give an equal amount of work to each worker. He wants to find a maximum number of workers possible with the same amount of total work. It is not necessary that the architect assigns all of his extra work.
