Why there is no FPTAS for multiple knapsack problem for two knapsacks unless P=NP?
There is no guarantee that the packing algorithm you suggested will lead to an optimal packing. Say you have two knapsacks of capacity 5, and objects of size 1, 2, 3 and 4. An optimal packing would be …

Difference between fractional knapsack & greedy solution
The fractional Knapsack problem isn't solved using Dynamic Programming, but can be solved using a greedy algorithm. Item A is \$50/unit, B is \$5/unit and C is \$40/unit. The greedy method is to use a …
