Thanks for the generous hint!

I get:
incas x tonic = idealistic
73601 x 98376 = 7240571976
and the phrase:
42U609783 71 411439705 98 46838M76 1U66411
(note - I changed the first string from 42U6097871)

Education is essential to economic success.

I will add comments about Incas, bugs, and Inca bugs here tomorrow. TBC
