Solve Block question:

Hi All,

I am trying to setup the following system of equalities with Solve Block function, below, and to see if it is possible to find one or more (Integer ONLY) results to this equality. ( Please see attachment. )

I know it needs constraints to search for ONLY Integers, but I don’t know how to set this up.

Please could someone review the following equality to see if it is possible to find one or more Integer results to this equality.

Any help or advice gratefully received.

Best regards,

Lea…

PS - I am using Mathcad version 15.

Using "floor" you can get time1 to be an integer. More than that the solve block fails.
