One of the elephants in the zoo is on a special diet.

Every day, the elephant eats as much carrot mash as the rabbit eats in 1 year (365 days).

The rabbit eats the same quantity of carrot every day.

Together, in one day, the elephant and rabbit eat 122 kilograms of carrot.

How many kilograms of carrot does the rabbit eat in one day?
