If Y is known, how can this be setup to solve for l?

Thank you.

I don't think Solver is the right approach, just loops.

RE: Help with Setting Up Solver
I must admit my knowledge in this area has not been used for many many years, and to add I'm very new to MathCAD.
I am playing with the FOR and WHILE loops right, and despite the examples online I'm a bit lost. Can you elaborate how to set this up?
This is from a paper that proposes a procedure for determining the capacity of a surge bin between two machines based on their rates, availability, etc.
RE: Help with Setting Up Solver
Y=user input
L=1
P=1
thisE=Y
while thisE<Y
L=L+1
thisE=longcomplicatedfunctionof P and L using a for loop
end while
print(L)
end
The problem I have with it is that unless I have mistranscribed your equation, E is always negative

RE: Help with Setting Up Solver
Maybe it will be helpful to understand this equation. I have two identical papers printed by two separate publishers and the equation in one of them is missing a ( which leads me to believe there is a small possibility the equation is incorrect. Anyways I'm stuck too.
Thanks again.
