Comments

We can have different solutions for the same number. E.g.: 2048 divides both (20^48 + 48^20) and (204^8 + 8^204). The same occurs for 4096, 4263, 16807, 32768, 96957, 156672, 186624, 252081, 262144, 270729, 352947, 390624 … The first number with 3 different concatenations is 186624 that divides (18^6624 + 6624^18), (186^624 + 624^186) and (1866^24 + 24^1866).

Example

6^3 + 3^6 = 945 and 945 / 63 = 15;
10^3 + 3^10 = 60049 and 60049 / 103 = 583;
12^8 + 8^12 = 69149458432 and 69149458432 / 128 = 540230144; etc.

if a>0 and b>0 then if type((a^b+b^a)/n, integer)
then print(n); break; fi; fi; od; od; end: P(10^9);
