2591\. Distribute Money to Maximum Children
Easy
You are given an integer `money` denoting the amount of money (in dollars) that you have and another integer `children` denoting the number of children that you must distribute the money to.
You have to distribute the money according to the following rules:
* All money must be distributed.
* Everyone must receive at least `1` dollar.
* Nobody receives `4` dollars.
Return _the **maximum** number of children who may receive **exactly**_ `8` _dollars if you distribute the money according to the aforementioned rules_. If there is no way to distribute the money, return `-1`.
**Example 1:**
**Input:** money = 20, children = 3
**Output:** 1
**Explanation:** The maximum number of children with 8 dollars will be 1. One of the ways to distribute the money is:
- 8 dollars to the first child.
- 9 dollars to the second child.
- 3 dollars to the third child.
It can be proven that no distribution exists such that number of children getting 8 dollars is greater than 1.
**Example 2:**
**Input:** money = 16, children = 2
**Output:** 2
**Explanation:** Each child can be given 8 dollars.
**Constraints:**
* `1 <= money <= 200`
* `2 <= children <= 30`
