(3) Each of the three children must return with exactly the same amount of money.
(4) Each child’s income must be in whole dollars (no cents allowed).
(5)The amount received by each child must be the largest possible under the stipulated conditions.
Assume that the kids are able to sell all they have. Use Integer Linear Programming to show how the children can satisfy the parents’ condition
