Choose 3 distinct words from the sentence above, say A , B, & C such that the cryptarithm A*B=C is uniquely solvable.
After solving please decode the following phrase:
42U6097871 71 411439705 98 46838M76
1U66411.

idealistic to work, which is hardly surprising: its 8 unique letters each take assignments, making factors that work scarce, and here I believe, unavailable.
The next longest word, beverage, with 8 letters: 6 unique, does in fact yield a solution, and a single unque one:
THE x BASED = BEVERAGE
580 x 17603 = 10209740
