Harald is right. This is a typical English flaw made by Germans.

I would change it into the following lengthy but hopefully clear
explanation:
The Knapsack problem is the following: We have a collection of items
each having two attributes, a weight (or a volume) and a usefulness.
We also have a bag with limited capacity (regarding the overall weight
of the items we put in). We now would like to fill the bag in a way
that the sum of the usefulness values of the items is at most.
