The following table includes data on cloud usage for 3 organizations

Day and organization A B C

1 12 5 20
2 5 85 5
3 7 7 88
4 7 10 7
5 3 5 10
The total datacenter cost is 1000000 and the profit margin is 10% and total expected working hours is
10000

37- If company A paid 500000 then this data center is private and owned.
38- If company b paid 380000 then this data center is a community cloud.
39- Using the maximum usage method, company c will pay 70000.
