{ a = Z X 3 b = Z X \large \begin{cases} a = \sqrt[3]{\overline{Z \cdots X}} \\ b = \sqrt{\overline{Z \cdots X}} \end{cases}

Given that X X is the last digit of a very large number, Z X \overline{Z \cdots X} and a a is a positive integer while b b is not an integer.

If x 1 , x 2 , x 3 , , x n x_1,x_2,x_3,\ldots, x_n , such that x 1 < x 2 < x 3 < < x n x_1<x_2<x_3< \ldots<x_n , are the possible values of X X , submit your answer as x 1 x 2 x 3 x n \overline{x_1x_2x_3\ldots x_n} .


The answer is 2378.
