%e 122915 is a term because 122915 = 1^4 + 3^4 + 6^4 + 9^4 + 10^4 + 18^4 = 1^4 + 4^4 + 7^4 + 8^4 + 15^4 + 16^4 = 1^4 + 7^4 + 9^4 + 10^4 + 14^4 + 16^4 = 2^4 + 3^4 + 4^4 + 5^4 + 14^4 + 17^4 = 2^4 + 4^4 + 5^4 + 7^4 + 11^4 + 18^4 = 2^4 + 9^4 + 9^4 + 12^4 + 14^4 + 15^4 = 3^4 + 5^4 + 6^4 + 6^4 + 11^4 + 18^4 = 3^4 + 8^4 + 10^4 + 11^4 + 13^4 + 16^4 = 5^4 + 6^4 + 7^4 + 11^4 + 14^4 + 16^4 = 8^4 + 8^4 + 9^4 + 10^4 + 11^4 + 17^4.
