23 = 23 + 23 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13 + 13

Only one other integer requires nine cubes of positive integers to represent its value as a sum of cubes. This other integer is between 200 and 300. Can you find it?

Well

53=125so257=53+53+13+13+13+13+13+13+13

 

Maybe there is a way to get 257 by adding less cubes
