Hello Bharath,

Thanks for your suggestion.

I want to distribute the apple across all the basket balanced way.
In other words
“I want to calculate the optimal number of apples on each basket  such
a  way that free and used space on each basket  equal to total
percentage of free and used space on all the baskets “

Thanks & Regards,
Sandeep
