God does not care about our mathematical difficulties. He integrates empirically. ~~~Albert Einstein (1879-1955)~~~~
To divide a cube into two other cubes, a fourth power or in general any power whatever into two powers of the same denomination above the second is impossible, and I have assuredly found an admirable proof of this, but the margin is too narrow to contain it.~~~Pierre de Fermat (1601-1665)~~~

i think u ment integeral sol. right. u can see that the x intersecpt is 336. both x and y should be int. now 3x should end with 3 or 8 so x can be 1,6,11,..... u can apply A.P formula 1+(n-1)5=336 => n=68 this also includes (336,0) that we do not want so 67
