From AoPSWiki

Problem

Let's say that an ordered triple of positive integers (a,b,c) is n-powerful if a \le b \le c, \gcd(a,b,c) = 1, and a^n + b^n + c^n is divisible by a+b+c. For example, (1,2,2) is 5-powerful.

  • Determine all ordered triples (if any) which are n-powerful for all n \ge 1.
  • Determine all ordered triples (if any) which are 2004-powerful and 2005-powerful, but not 2007-powerful.
