This puzzle of mine will enable to test your ingenuity in solving problems quickly, applying all your previous experience to get the correct answer in minimal time.
Start your timer.
Imagine being interviewed for a job of your best dreams.
The letters in the equation below represent POSITIVE INTEGERS.
You are asked to provide the value of t as accurate as possible.

Not the solution by Charlie)
Repeating
116 = 2^2 * 29
611 = 13 * 47
225 = 3^2 * 5^2
If, for example, m were made to be 2^2 * 29^3 * 13^4 * 47^4 * 3^3 * 5^4, and likewise, each of the others were made so the entire term were each of the prime factors, other than 3 were present to the 4th power, except the 3 to the third power, when added together that would still be the number as stated in the "not the solution". It's just that the values of m, n and q would be larger. It would still result in the same t: 531570. Each term (including both coefficient and variable) would be the same, and there being three of them, the 3 would get the change from 3rd power to 4th.

re: Not the solution -- maybe it still is
