 What is the quantum entanglement of the first group of packages in the ideal configuration?
 
+--- Part Two ---
+That's weird... the sleigh still isn't balancing.
+
+"Ho ho ho", Santa muses to himself. "I forgot the trunk".
+
+Balance the sleigh again, but this time, separate the packages into four groups instead of three. The other constraints still apply.
+
+Given the example packages above, this would be some of the new unique first groups, their quantum entanglements, and one way to divide the remaining packages:
+
+
+11 4    (QE=44); 10 5;   9 3 2 1; 8 7
+10 5    (QE=50); 11 4;   9 3 2 1; 8 7
+9 5 1   (QE=45); 11 4;   10 3 2;  8 7
+9 4 2   (QE=72); 11 3 1; 10 5;    8 7
+9 3 2 1 (QE=54); 11 4;   10 5;    8 7
+8 7     (QE=56); 11 4;   10 5;    9 3 2 1
+Of these, there are three arrangements that put the minimum (two) number of packages in the first group: 11 4, 10 5, and 8 7. Of these, 11 4 has the lowest quantum entanglement, and so it is selected.
+
+Now, what is the quantum entanglement of the first group of packages in the ideal configuration?
