PROBLEM:

The objective is to find the minimum number of bags Chef needs so that he can put every candy into bags, where each bag has K pockets and each pocket can have a maximum of M candies.

EXPLANATION:

Given each bag has K pockets which can have maximum of M candies, the maximum number of candies that a bag can hold is K\times M.
Thus if:

  • N<(K\times M), the minimum number of bags required is 1.
    *N%(K\times M)=0,the minimum number of bags required is N \div (K\times M)
    *N%(K\times M)>0,the minimum number of bags required is [N \div (K\times M) ]+1

TIME COMPLEXITY:

Time complexity is O(1).

	    int n,m,k;
	    cin>>n>>k>>m;
	    if(n<m*k)
	    cout<<"1"<<"\n";
	    else if(n%(k*m)==0)
	    cout<<n/(k*m)<<"\n";
	    else if(n%(k*m)>0) 
	    cout<<(n/(k*m))+1<<"\n";
