There are two errors in this post.

One of them is editorial;  the other is fatal. 

    1.  The editorial error is "sun" instead of "sum",  and I would be able to fix it.


    2.  The fatal error is that the input data is WRONG and the problem HAS NO integer solution.  And this error is that I can not fix.
