%N A094185 Number of solutions to n == xy (mod z) == yz (mod x) == zx (mod y) with 
               0 < x < y < z.
%C A094185 Possner (see also Knuth) asks for solutions when n=2. There is at least 
               one solution for all positive n: (x,y,z) = (n+1, n^2+2n, n^3+3n^2+n). 
               All solutions appear to be in the polytope n < x <= 2n^2+n, x < y 
               <= 2n^3+2n^2-n, y < z <= n^5+2n^4+2n^3+n^2-n. Many solutions, especially 
               for prime n, are such that n divides x, y and z. See A094595.

%e A094185 a(2) = 6 because there are 6 solutions: (x,y,z) = (3, 8, 22), (3, 10, 
               14), (4, 5, 18), (4, 6, 11), (6, 14, 82) and (6, 22, 26).

               {y, x+1, n(2n^2+2n-1)}]; cnt, {n, 10}]
%Y A094185 Cf. A094595 (number of solutions to 1 = nxy (mod z) = nyz (mod x) = nzx 
               (mod y) with 0<x<y<z).
