Note that the
and its iterations are all divisible by 180. This implies that 2 of
are divisible by 4, 2 are divisible by 9 and 2 are divisible by 5.
Next we note that iterations are 180,
,
. This implies that
or
must have an additional factor of 2 and
or
must have an additional factor of 3. The sum is minimized if d=2 and e=3 and f=1.
