(%age share of each employee - A) X (Number of employees - B) has to be <=67
Former variable, A isn't an integer (it's percentage, can change it total sale volume is in lakhs) while latter one, B is mandatory integer

Common trap is to take minimum value of A as 9 which gives B as 7, while it can be 8.1, 8.01. 8.001 or anything. Hence to maximixe B, if you take even 8.1 as A, B can be 8 at max with 7 people at around 8.01 and last one at (67 - A*7)
