[b]p1.[/b] An evil galactic empire is attacking the planet Naboo with numerous automatic drones. The fleet defending the planet consists of $101$ ships. By the decision of the commander of the fleet, some of these ships will be used as destroyers equipped with one rocket each or as rocket carriers that will supply destroyers with rockets. Destroyers can shoot rockets so that every rocket destroys one drone. During the attack each carrier will have enough time to provide each destroyer with one rocket but not more. How many destroyers and how many carriers should the commander assign to destroy the maximal number of drones and what is the maximal number of drones that the fleet can destroy?
