Answer:
1/2 ( 1 / ( 1/365.24219 - 1/365.25964 ) )/365.24219

Tony is standing in a pool and says, something like, “What do you want me to do a three sixty?” Benedict corrects him, “... a one eighty.” Tony says, “Huh?” and Benedict explains, “If you did a three sixty, you’d turn all the way around and be going the same way as when you started.” Tony spreads his arms and thrusts out his chest as he exclaims in bewilderment, “WHAAAAAAAA?” whereupon Benedict shoots him right between the eyes.
