Who can work this out for me?

Hi All!
I'm hoping someone with a knowledge of mortgages and over payments etc can help me out calculate how many months etc I have to pay left of my mortgage if I make the maximum overpayments.
I have a 5 year fixed rate of 2.29% and I can pay 10% overpayments per yet.
Starting balance of £80,723.00 and I pay £447.60 per month.
Can someone who is a genius tell me what my 10% will be every year (based on the monthly figure and maximum overpayment per year) and also how many months I will have left to pay if I do the maximum every year?
Agreed redemption date is June 2031 if thats needed too.
I would be so so grateful as I've been trying to wrack my brains for a wee while now but not sure if I'm doing it right.
TIA! Miss Pinky xxx

Oh I maybe should have said that the fixed rate date started on the 1st March this year so 4yrs and 6 months left.
Oh and as of today I have £60.625.63 left to pay and can pay a further £2500.00 in overpayments for this year (till march)MFW #150 -

To do the job properly needs more details like will the overpayment be monthly or immediately a new 10% is allowed.
Will you have the same amount every month so surplus can be carried forward.
Will the lender recalculate payments.0 -
In practice all that matters is the payment you can afford,overpayment or saved makes little difference with the the rates being so low.
Just stick what you can afford in a calculator and that will be close within a month or two.0
