Two wedges, each of mass `m`, are placed next to each other on a flat horizontal floor. A cube of mass `M` is balanced on the wedges as shown in figure. Assume no friction between the cube and the wedges, but a coefficent of static friction `mult1` between the wedges and the floor. What is the largest `M` that can be balanced as shown without motion of the wedges ?

A

0.8

B

0.6

C
