In order to encode a message, James first replaces each letter in the message

by its corresponding number; let A = 1, B = 2, , Y = 25 and Z = 26. Then,
it multiplies each number by 3 and then subtracts 5. James continues this
process a total of n times. For example, when n = 2, the letter D is encoded by
the number 16. If James encoded a four-letter message with the four numbers
367 205 853 1339, what value of n did he use?
