RMO Practice Problems - Number Theory #3

Let ( p i , q i , r i ) (p_{i}, q_{i}, r_{i}) be the ordered triple of primes that satisfy the below condition

p i q i r i + 1 q i r i p i + 1 r i p i q i + 1 p_{i}|q_{i} ^{r_{i}} +1 \quad \quad \quad q_{i}|r_{i} ^{p_{i}} +1 \quad \quad \quad r_{i}|p_{i} ^{q_{i}}+ 1

Find the value of i = 1 n p i + q i + r i \sum_{i=1}^{n} p_{i} + q_{i} + r_{i} where n n denotes the number of solutions.
