- Answer

Each week, the family generates a total of of laundry (the proportion of each colour is subject to variation). The laundry is sorted by colour and placed in the bins. Next, the heaviest bin (only one of them, if there are several that are heaviest) is emptied and its contents washed. What is the minimal possible storing capacity required of the laundry bins in order for them never to overflow?
