The sphere x2+y2+z2=1x^2 + y^2 + z^2 = 1 has many rational solutions. For instance, start with the point (x,y,z)=(1,0,0)(x,y,z) = (1,0,0), and draw the line {x=1−t,y=t,z=t}\{x = 1-t, y = t, z = t\} through it to get another intersection with the sphere, (x,y,z)=(a,b,c)(x,y,z) = (a,b,c). What is 300a+30b+3c300a+30b+3c?
