olga2289 [7]

Each ream weighs 5 lb . so, reducing 10 lb means removing 2 reams from the 12. so, how do we arrange the 10 reams so that its easy to carry?
i thinks that 3 stacks will not work as it wont be a symmetric arrangement as 1 will be left out. So, 2 stacks of 5 each would be easy to carry. but the stacks should be placed in such a way that the lengths are parallel to each other and not in-line which would increase the length making it comparatively longer. its easier to hold a (2*8.5,11,2*5=17,11,17)compact box.
