Minimum Cost to Hire K Workers
There are n workers. You are given two integer arrays quality and wage where quality[i] is the quality of the i^th worker and wage[i] is the minimum wage expectation for the i^th worker.
We want to hire exactly k workers to form a paid group. To hire a group of k workers, we must pay them according to the following rules:
- Every worker in the paid group must be paid at least their minimum wage expectation.
- In the group, each worker's pay must be directly proportional to their quality. This means if a worker's quality is double that of another worker in the group, then they must be paid twice as much as the other worker.
Given the integer k, return the least amount of money needed to form a paid group satisfying the above conditions. Answers within 10^-5 of the actual answer will be accepted.
Example 1
Input
quality = [10,20,5], wage = [70,50,30], k = 2Output
105We pay 70 to 0^th worker and 35 to 2^nd worker.
Example 2
Input
quality = [3,1,10,10,1], wage = [4,8,2,2,7], k = 3Output
30.66667We pay 4 to 0^th worker, 13.33333 to 2^nd and 3^rd workers separately.
Constraints
- n == quality.length == wage.length
- 1 <= k <= n <= 10^4
- 1 <= quality[i], wage[i] <= 10^4
