You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2*a*b+4*b*c=350
a = 1, b = 1, c = 87
a = 1, b = 5, c = 17
There are five integer solutions with a=1
There are a total of 121 integer solutions
Here are some of them
a = 3, b = 7, c = 11
a = 3, b = 5, c = 16
a = 5, b = 5, c = 15
a = 7, b = 7, c = 9
a = 7, b = 5, c = 14
a = 9, b = 5, c = 13
2*9*5=90
4*5*13=260
