Given an array, arr[] and an integer X, the task is to count the number of elements greater than X after equally dividing the subset of elements. That is each element of the subset will be equal to \frac{Sum of Subset}{Number of Elements}

Examples: 

Input: arr[] = {5, 1, 2, 1}, X = 3 
Output:
Explanation: 
Subset which is equally distributes is {5, 2}. 
After which the elements will be 3.5 each. 
Array => {3.5, 1, 3.5, 1} 
Total number of elements greater than X = 2

Input: arr[] = {3, 4, 5}, X = 6 
Output:
Explanation: 
There is no way to distribute any subset of array to make the elements greater than 6. 
 

Approach: The idea is to sort the array and include the largest elements of the array such that their average is greater than or equal to X. Count of such elements whose average is greater than or equal to X is the desired subset which can be equally divided and each element is greater than X.

Below is the implementation of the above approach: 

C++

// C++ implementation to find the
// maximum number of elements greater
// than X by equally distributing
 
#include <bits/stdc++.h>
using namespace std;
 
// Function to find the
// maximum number of elements greater
// than X by equally distributing
void redistribute(int arr[], int n, int x)
{
    // Sorting the array
    sort(arr, arr + n, greater<int>());
 
    int i, sum = 0;
 
    // Loop to iterate over the elements
    // of the array
    for (i = 0; i < n; i++) {
        sum += arr[i];
 
        // If no more elements can
        // become larger than x
        if (sum / (i + 1) < x) {
            cout << i << endl;
            break;
        }
    }
    if (i == n)
        cout << n << endl;
}
 
// Driver Code
int main()
{
    int arr[] = { 5, 1, 2, 1 };
    int x = 3;
    redistribute(arr, 4, x);
    return 0;
}

                    

Java

// Java implementation to find the
// maximum number of elements greater
// than X by equally distributing
import java.util.*;
 
class GFG{
 
// Function to find the maximum
// number of elements greater
// than X by equally distributing
static void redistribute(Integer arr[], int n,
                                        int x)
{
     
    // Sorting the array
    Arrays.sort(arr, Collections.reverseOrder());
 
    int i, sum = 0;
 
    // Loop to iterate over the elements
    // of the array
    for(i = 0; i < n; i++)
    {
       sum += arr[i];
        
       // If no more elements can
       // become larger than x
       if (sum / (i + 1) < x)
       {
           System.out.print(i + "\n");
           break;
       }
    }
    if (i == n)
        System.out.print(n + "\n");
}
 
// Driver Code
public static void main(String[] args)
{
    Integer arr[] = { 5, 1, 2, 1 };
    int x = 3;
     
    redistribute(arr, 4, x);
}
}
