Four different sized rooms will be included, two that hold 50
participants, one that holds 100 participants, and one that holds
150 participants. The conference rooms will be rented out to
various groups and are available for 5 hours per day. You have
requests for rooms in the table below. It may not be possible to
find rooming for all events. There is no requirement that 50
participant events be assigned only to the rooms that hold 50; you
could room them in the 100 or 150 seat rooms. Likewise, requests
for 100 participants could be roomed in the 150-seat room. How will
you assign these events to maximize the number of participants
getting to use the new facility?
Participants | Hours Requested | Number of Requests | |
---|---|---|---|
Request Type A | 50 | 2,3,4 | 3 |
Request Type B | 150 | 1,2,3 | 1 |
Request TYpe C | 100 | 5 | 1 |
Request Type D | 50 | 1,2 | 2 |
Hint: 400 participants are accommodated. (Using Solver)
