Question 1189399: When the digits in the number 2005 are reversed we obtain the number 5002, and 5002 = a * b * c, such that a, b and c are three distinct primes. How many other positive integers are the products of exactly three distinct primes prime1, prime2 and prime3 such that prime1 + prime2 + prime3 = a+b+c?

Question 1193997: Q: Enter a prime triplet, where each member of the triplet is less than 100
I'm confused.
A prime triple is three consecutive primes, such that the first and the last differ by six.
(p, p+2, p+6)
(p, p+4, p+6)
(Examples: (5,7,11), (7,11,13), (11,13,17), (13,17,19) and (17,19,23).) These are prime triples.
However, I got the question wrong. It says the correct answer is 3,5,7
There are no prime triplets other than 3, 5, 7
Is the definition I considered wrong? Please explain. Thanks.

Question 1194009: Choose all the descriptions for natural numbers n that have 3 divisors.
1- n= p^2 * q (for any two distinct primes p and q)
2- n= p * q (for any two distinct primes p and q)
3- n= p * q * r (for any three distinct primes p,q and r)
4- n= p^2 (for any prime number)
So every natural number has at least 2 factors - 1 and itself. So numbers with 3 factors then have to be perfect squares of prime numbers.
I selected 4- n= p^2 (for any prime number)
So they only have 1 distinct prime factor, and the question says select ALL.
Am I missing any other description that applies?
Thanks

Question 1194329: I'm not sure if this is the correct place for LCM.
I need to enter an improper roster for the following
Multiples of 6 {0,6,12,18,...}
Multiples of LCM(4,7) {0,28,56,84,...}
Multiples of LCM(4,6) {0,12,24,48,...}
Multiples that intercept (4,7) {0,28,56,84,...}
Multiples that intercept (4,6) {0,12,24,48,...}
I'm unsure when to include the zero, and where I shouldn't. Please help. Thanks.
