if are consecutive positive integers such that is a perfect square and is a perfect cube, what is the smallest possible value of ?

Respuesta :

The value of x is 675 when the a<b<c<d<e are consecutive positive integers such that is a perfect square and a+b+c+d+e is a perfect cube.

Given that,

If a<b<c<d<e are consecutive positive integers such that is a perfect square and a+b+c+d+e is a perfect cube.

We have to find what is the smallest possible value of c.

We know that,

Let b,c,d and e equal to a+1,a+2,a+3, and a+4 respectively.

Let the square and cube be k² and m³ where both k and m are integers.

Then 5a+10=m³

Now, we know m³ is a multiple of 125 and m is a multiple of 5.

The lower is m, the lower the value of c will be.

Start from 5 and add 5 to each time.

m=5 gives no solution for k.

m=10 gives no solution for k.

m=15 gives no solution for k.

10+5a=15³

2+a=675

c=675

Therefore, The value of x is 675 when the a<b<c<d<e are consecutive positive integers such that is a perfect square and a+b+c+d+e is a perfect cube.
