Problem Statement

To investigate the properties of sound in a laboratory, a device (an electromagnetic tuning fork) that maintains a constant electrical oscillation was used to generate a sound of a specific pitch. The frequency fff of this device is expressed in Hz\mathrm{Hz}Hz and represents the number of times the medium vibrates per second.

Now, the sound waves emitted by this device were captured by a microphone and displayed on a computer screen. The time from the highest point of a wave (a crest) to the next crest is called the period TTT of the sound wave. The unit for the period TTT is the second s\mathrm{s}s.

The following relationship holds between the frequency fff and the period TTT.

f=1Tf = \frac{1}{T}f=T1​

When the period TTT of this device was measured, its value was expressed as T=1tT = \frac{1}{t}T=t1​, where ttt is a variable. Find the value of the frequency fff in this case, and determine the natural number that satisfies the following input format.

Constraints

  • t=400 s−1t = 400\text{ }\mathrm{s^{-1}}t=400 s−1

Input Format

Let AAA be the numerical value of the frequency fff. Enter the value of AAA as a natural number.
