You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Let d = # of days of his tour programme.
===> 360%2Fd+-+360%2F%28d%2B4%29+=+3
<===> 120%2Fd+-+120%2F%28d%2B4%29+=+1
<===> 480 = d(d+4) ===> d%5E2+%2B+4d+-+480+=+0
<===> (d-20)(d+24) = 0 ===> d = 20, -24
Eliminating the negative candidate, the number of days in the tour programme is highlight%2820%29.
