Woburn Challenge 2018-19 Round 3 - Junior Division

Jessie, James, and Meowth, members of the honourable Team Rocket, have unfortunately fallen on hard times. With their funds necessarily allocated to constructing all manner of giant robots and other devices, they've been having difficulty affording any food lately. But that's nothing that an honest day's work can't fix!
James has a can of leftover paint, containing
litres of the stuff. When combined with his boundless collection of
bottlecaps, this can result in some high-quality wares. When a bottlecap
is artfully covered with
litres of paint, it
turns into a completely legitimate, Pokémon league-certified gym badge!
James will produce as many badges as he can using the paint, using
exactly litres each. Pokémon trainers love their gym badges, so each
such badge is sure to sell for
Pokédollars.
There might still be some extra paint left over, once there's not enough
for another complete badge. However, there's no need for it to go to
waste - James will sell any remaining paint at a rate of Pokédollar
per litre.
How much money will James make for Team Rocket in total, from his sales of badges and leftover paint? Hopefully it'll be enough for at least a loaf of bread!
Input Specification
The first line of input consists of a single integer, .
The second line consists of a single integer, .
The third line consists of a single integer, .
Output Specification
Output a single integer, the amount of money which James will make (in Pokédollars).
Sample Input
14
3
10
Sample Output
42
Sample Explanation
James has enough paint for badges, which he'll then sell for
Pokédollars. That will leave him with
unused litres of paint, which
he'll sell for an additional
Pokédollars.

try divmod() in Python3
I don't understand why the same 4-line code passes with Python2/3 but got "IR (failed initializing)" for all 7 test cases with PyPy2/3.
About to go dump 100 litres of paint on 1 single bottle cap
Can somebody help me? I cannot understand this problem!
That took a lot of commenting in the code to get straight what was actually needing to be done. It was a good thing % and // were fresh in my mind
I don't understand how I'm supposed to solve this problem.
rather than using
int()
, use floor division//
instead of division/
this will only return integersif you think your solution is correct and you keep getting the right result for test you have developed, try using int() in your for you final answer. I just found out that 42.0 and 42 are different :/
I am really stuck with this problem :( not able to find the solution
A hint is to look up the modulo operator (%) and how to calculate remainders.
The part which says "With their funds necessarily allocated to constructing all manner of giant robots and other devices, they've been having difficulty affording any food lately." reminds me of the final days in the university when guys 😂 were looking for how to survive due to huge monies spent on final year project. Only those from ATBU can relate
hahahahahahaha. I can also relate to my experience during my last year project plus research in university.
I actually figured it out from the comments.
I am not a native English speaker and i got no idea what this problem was. now i'm trying to figure it out through the comments.
This problem doesn't make logical sense.
James has P liters of paint. Each cap he wants to paint costs B liters of paint. Each painted cap will sell of D dollars. After painting all the caps, the leftover paint will sell for 1 dollar/L.
OK thanks, you have made it more clear.
