One package has a size of 10 cm * 5 cm * 3.6 cm.
The forwarder accepts a belt dimension of max. 300 cm.
The belt dimension is calculated as follows: 2 * width + 2 * height + longest side.
The longest side must not exceed 175 cm.
What is the maximum number of packages that can be delivered?
Solve in Python script.

. your problem is flawed. for a 3 dimension object the volume is calculated as simply width*height*length.
let's assume it's deliberate though. you want the equation
2*width/10 +2*height/5 +longest side/3.6
to be the maximum value, such that 2*width+2*height +longest length = 300
so for a progeam

width = 0
height = 0
longest_side = 0
best_fit = 0
for height in range(1,175):
   for width in range(1,175):
      longest_side = 300 -2*height - 2*width
      if longest_side > 175:
         continue
      else:
         if 2*width +2*height +longest_side > best_fit:
            best_fit =  2*width +2*height +longest_side
packege = best_fit/(10*5*3.6)
print packege
