Vasily has a candles.When Vasily lights up a new candle, it first burns for an hour and then it goes out. Vasily is smart, so he can make b went out candles into a new candle. As a result, this new candle can be used like any other new candle.

Now Vasily wonders: for how many hours can his candles light up the room if he acts optimally well? Help him find this number.

int dfs(int well ,int burn){
    if(well == 0 && burn < b)
      return 0 ;
    int sum = well ;
    int next_well = burn/b ;
    burn %= b ;
    return sum + dfs(next_well,well+burn) ;
}

int main(){
    int a ;
    cin>>a>>b ;
    cout<<dfs(a,0)<<endl ;
    return 0 ;
}
