I saw this problem/post submitted several times with no produced solution.

The solution/solutions was not produced, because your formulation is  DEFECTIVE.

It is  EITHER  absurdist  OR  incomplete.

So,  it makes no sense to re-post it again and again.


You should revise your formulation.

Instead of posting a problem 4 times to try to get a response, try taking the time to read what you have written before you post it....
