Hello, I searched the forums for this answer but either found old threads with no answers or something different than what I am looking for.

I am trying to calculate how many consecutive days it will take to get to a specific percentage goal.
I am currently on day number 420 of a project. 46 of these days I was unable to meet my goal for the project (equates to 10.98%).
My question is, how many days consecutively would it take for me to get to where I am not meeting my goal for exactly 10% of the overall days. (Image attached)

I can manually get to the answer of 41 however I am having issues finding the correct formula in excel due to the overall amount of days increasing.
