How to get the value of $a + b + c$?












2












$begingroup$


$(0 leq a < b < c) in Z$,



$a + b + c + ab + ac + bc + abc = 1622$



$a + b + c = ?$



I've assumed that $a = 0$, by that we can get rid of this part $ab + ac + abc$



Now $bc + b + c = 1622$.



But I found that was useless and got stuck.

Hint:



$$a+b+c+ab+ac+bc+abc=(1+a)(1+b)(1+c)-1$$



Therefore $(1+a)(1+b)(1+c)=?$

    $begingroup$

    Note that $$1+a+b+c+ab+bc+ca+abc=(1+a)(1+b)(1+c)$$
    $$(1+a)(1+b)(1+c)=1623=1cdot3cdot541$$
    $$implies a=0, b=2, c=540.$$
    Note that $0leq a<b<c$. Those three numbers, 1, 3 and 541 are the only possible factorisation that could satisfy this criteria
