The problem asks whether any integer, or whole number, can be represented as the sum of three cubed numbers.
There were already two known solutions for the number 3, both of which involve small numbers: 13 + 13 + 13 and 43 + 43 + (-5)3.
But mathematicians have been searching for a third for decades. The solution that Booker and Sutherland found is:
(569936821221962380720)^3 + (-569936821113563493509)^3 + (-472715493453327032)^3 = 3
