AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Create the smallest factor k such that m×k is a perfect cube. Start by randomly selecting a number c, then find its factors m2. Next, randomly choose a vector A and calculate c1, c2, and c3 based on A's coordinates. Use these values to find the GCD and LCM of m0 and m2. Finally, through factorization and GCD calculations, determine the value of k to ensure m×k is a perfect cube.
