Assuming you put in 8 hrs per day at the thing, you are looking at about 3.68 of the thing per hour.

That number also assumes you do the thing everyday for four years straight. No days off.

Depends on how long your refractory period is.

Decide how many minutes per day you can allow for it. Call that M. Then the number of minutes to allocate for each of the 43,000 repetitions is:

M * 365.25 * 4 / 43000

So if M is 720 (12 hours), the answer is 24.46 minutes.

This answer points to the critical lack of information in the original question - how much of each day are you devoting to the activity?

Put another way: 43000 / (365.25 * 4) = 29.43 repetitions/day. Divide the total number of minutes you'll spend doing it each day by 29.43, you'll figure out how long you can take each time. To make it even simpler: for every hour you'll spend doing it, you can spend about 2 minutes per rep. 1 hour, 2 min/per. 2 hrs, 4 min/per, and so on. Depending on how old you are, 2-4 minutes should be plenty.

no other information was given in the story.
just a "lady" said she had been raped that many times, in four years.

just a headline grabber? but by the math by the experts sounds plosable.

Raped 30 times a day, 7 days a week? Doesnt seem plausible. Especially if this is commited by one person.

4 years is 1460 days.
29 times per day every day to have done the something 43,000 times in 4 years.

Once every half hour from morning 'til night should cover it.
