Problem Statement

Official algorithmic problem description and constraints.

Open on Codeforces

Kmes has written three integers π‘Ž, π‘ and π‘ in order to remember that he has to give Noobish_Monk π‘ŽΓ—𝑏×𝑐 bananas.

Noobish_Monk has found these integers and decided to do the following at most 5 times:

  • pick one of these integers;
  • increase it by 1.

For example, if π‘Ž=2, π‘=3 and π‘=4, then one can increase π‘Ž three times by one and increase π‘ two times. After that π‘Ž=5, π‘=5, π‘=4. Then the total number of bananas will be 5Γ—5Γ—4=100.

What is the maximum value of π‘ŽΓ—𝑏×𝑐 Noobish_Monk can achieve with these operations?
