In the diagram shown, 23 identical rubber balls were placed between two walls with equally spaced gaps between them. The first rubber ball and the last rubber ball were touching the front wall and last wall respectively. Given that the distance between the two walls was 399 cm and that the radius of a rubber ball was 7 cm. Find the length of the gap between any two adjacent rubber balls as shown.
