While performing the Container Optimization query from Ask OTM with equipment weight as 2100 kgs, when the combination is given as:

2 THU with weight 1500 kg volume 8 lbs
2 THU with weight 500 kg volume 8 lbs
OTM shows capacity used as three.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR

OTM should use two container as two containers have the capacity(2100+2100=4200 kgs) to accommodate two 1500 kgs and two 500 kgs weight(1500X2+500X2=4000 kgs).
