2011 German National Olympiad, 2

The price for sending a packet (a rectangular cuboid) is directly proportional to the sum of its length, width, and height. Is it possible to reduce the cost of sending a packet by putting it into a cheaper packet?

III Soros Olympiad 1996 - 97 (Russia), 11.5

All faces of the parallelepiped $ABCDA_1B_1C_1D_1$ are equal rhombuses. Plane angles at vertex $A$ are equal. Points $K$ and $M$ are taken on the edges $A_1B_1$ and $A_1D_1$. It is known that $A_1K = a$, $A_1M = b$, and$ a + b$ is an edge of the parallelepiped. Prove that the plane $AKM$ touches the sphere inscribed in the parallelepiped. Let us denote by $Q$ the touchpoint of this sphere with the plane $AKM $. In what ratio does the straight line $AQ$ divide the segment $KM$?
