Here's the Solution to this Question

This is a linear programming problem that requires three elements and three constraints.

X_1=Package1

X_2=Package2

X_3=Package 3

Objective Function:

Max Z =120X_1+100X_2+270X_3

Subject to:

2X_1+2X_2+3X_3=250

2X_1+4X_2+4X_3=300

2X_1+1X_2+5X_3=270

X_1,X_2,X_3>0

X_1=82

X_2=16

X_3=18

Max Z =(120\times82)+(100\times16)+(270\times18)=16300
