A quadruple $(p, a, b, c)$ of positive integers is a karaka quadruple if $\bullet$ $p$ is an odd prime number $\bullet$ $a, b$ and $c$ are distinct, and $\bullet$ $ab + 1$, $bc + 1$ and $ca + 1$ are divisible by $p$. (a) Prove that for every karaka quadruple $(p, a, b, c)$ we have $p + 2 \le\frac{a + b + c}{3}$. (b) Determine all numbers $p$ for which a karaka quadruple $(p, a, b, c)$ exists with $p + 2 =\frac{a + b + c}{3}$
