how to optimize this solution??

clc
clear all
close all
syms b d
VNX = ((80*415*0.8*d)/250)+(0.16*sqrt(20)*b*d)+((0.48*70590)/sqrt(20))==175000;
assume(300<b<700)
assume(300<d<700 )
sol = solve([VNX], [b,d]);
bx = sol.b
dx = sol.d
i am getting a solution for it but i want an optimal one
any help regarding it??

You have a single equation in two variables. When you solve() it you are going to get an equation in one variable. In particular since you listed b first, sol.b will be an equation in d and sol.d will be d (that is, d can assume any value.) You can then solve() sol.b() for your boundary conditions of your assumptions on b, which will allow you to narrow the range of d to consider.
But within that range of d, roughly 300 to 521, there is a solution for b for each value of d.
In order to get an "optimal" solution you need to define what "optimal" means for this situation. Smallest b? Smallest d? Largest b? Largest d?

minimum of either of the two b or d any one amongst them would be sufficient but both of them would be very much helpful
