If \(1,485= a^x b^y c^z\), then \(abc=\) ?
\(1485=3^3*5*11\)
(1) \(1485 = a^3bc\)
(2) \(c = 11\)
Combined..
We know that c=11, but a and b could be anything as it is NOT given that they are integers..
\(1485=a^3*b*11...a^3b=135=3*3*3*5.\).
\(a=3\), and \(b=5...abc=3*5*11\).
\(a=135^{\frac{1}{3}}\) and \(b=1.....abc = 135^{\frac{1}{3}}*1*11\)

Very tricky. It's not given a b and c are prime , neither it's given that they are integers . Got it wrong :D
