APMO 2017 Problem 4

  • Paper

Call a rational number rr powerful if rr can be expressed in the form pkq\frac{p^{k}}{q} for some relatively prime positive integers p,qp, q and some integer k>1k>1. Let a,b,ca, b, c be positive rational numbers such that abc=1a b c=1. Suppose there exist positive integers x,y,zx, y, z such that ax+by+cza^{x}+b^{y}+c^{z} is an integer. Prove that a,b,ca, b, c are all powerful.
