Let a be the +ve integer in the form of 3p , 3p+1 , 3p+2
By Euclid Division Algorithm
a = bq + r
The possible remainder are
r = 0, 1, 2
r=0
a=3q+0
a=3q
C.O.B.S cubing on both sides
a cube = [3q ]cube
a cube = [27q ] cube
a cube = 9 [3q cube]
a cube = 9 { where 3q cube = m }
a cube = 9m
You can substitute
r = 1 or r = 2 and get the answer
If not I can give you it in next 24 hrs
