Find the 3 numbers
=======================
These are trial and error problems, there's no algebraic solution.
----
Sum= 57 Product= 6732
The product is even, so at least 1 number is even.
The sum is odd, so either 1 number is odd, or 3 are odd --> 2 even #'s and 1 odd.
-----
Factor 6732 = 2*2*3*3*11*17
Try combinations using all the factors to get a sum of 57.
