Bobo the clown was juggling his spherical cows again when he realized that when he drops a cow is related to how many cows he started off juggling. If he juggles $1$, he drops it after $64$ seconds. When juggling $2$, he drops one after $55$ seconds, and the other $55$ seconds later. In fact, he was able to create the following table: [img]https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/1/0/554a9bace83b4b3595c6012dfdb42409465829.png[/img] He can only juggle up to $22$ cows. To juggle the cows the longest, what number of cows should he start off juggling? How long (in minutes) can he juggle for?
