11. The management of Sure Cure Hospital supports research by doctors every year through grants to its
departments engaged in research programs. The management has received requests for research support
from Paediatrics and Oncology departments. The two departments require minimum of 4 crore and
7 crore respectively to begin researeh in new areas, The Paediatrics department claim they can get one
patent for everry 1.25 crore of rupees they spend on the new research whereas Oncology department
claim they would get one patent for every two crore of rupees they spend. A total of 12 crore have
been allocated by the management to be distributed among the two departments. While it has agreed in
principle to approve both the new projects, the management is not sure about the exact amounts each
department should get.
Formulate this problem as an LPP and delermine graphically the optimal amounts to be granted to the
Iwo departments, if the objective is to maximise the expected number of patents resulting from research.
