Question 436823
.


The post by @josgarithmetic with his answer  " about 8 years and 8 months "  is 


        (1)   incorrect


    and


        (2)   distorts the meaning of the problem and the meaning of my solution.


This problem is not seeking for an approximate solution.

What josgarithmetic calls  " an approximate solution ",  is  NOT  a solution and is  NOT  an appropriate solution.

The problem seeks for a  PRECISE  solution,  instead,  which is achieved via the proper rounding.


The proper rounding of the resulting decimal number to the closest greater integer number 
is an integral and essential part of the solution,  which can not be neglected/ignored/omitted.


Regarding all the rest in the post by @josgarithmetic,  it is a reduced re-writing from the solution by @ikleyn. 


Therefore,  my advise and instruction to a reader is fully ignore the post by @josgaritmetic.

        @josgarithmetic, rewriting from others is a very low-level practice, 

                            so I advise you to stop doing it.
