Numbers with a pair of unordered factorizations whose sums of factors are the same.
All terms of the sequence are composite.
The smallest odd term of the sequence is a(174) = 675. This is a term of the sequence because 675 = 27*5*5 = 9*3*25 and 27+5+5 = 9+3+25 = 37.
Terms of the sequence are used in variations of a logic puzzle known as "Ages of Three Children Puzzle" or "Census-taker problem". For the original puzzle, see A334911.
If a number m is in the sequence, then all multiples of m are in the sequence. For example, multiples of 4 are in the sequence because there always exist at least two factorizations 4*k = 2*2*k whose factors sum to the same value 4+k = 2+2+k.

EXAMPLE
|
All unordered factorization of 90 are 90 = 45*2 = 30*3 = 18*5 = 15*6 = 15*3*2 = 10*9 = 9*5*2 = 10*3*3 = 6*5*3 = 5*3*3*2. Corresponding sums of factors are not all distinct: 90, 57, 33, 23, 21, 20, 19, 16, 16, 14, 13 because the sum 16 = 10+3+3 = 9+5+2 appears twice. Therefore 90 is in the sequence.
All unordered factorization of 30 are 30 = 15*2 = 10*3 = 6*5 = 5*3*2. Corresponding sums of factors are all distinct: 30 = 30, 17 = 15+2, 13 = 10+3, 11 = 6+5, 10 = 2+3+5. Therefore 30 is not in the sequence.
