`eat` is the number of minutes that your guests will spend on eating.

solve(p, eat) is to calculate the minimum number of minutes that is
required to divide the pancakes such that each plate contains no more than
`eat` pancakes.

To divide a plate of K pancakes into some plates that each contains no more
than `eat` pancakes, you need at least (K - 1) / `eat` minutes.
