S. Ryley proved following theorem in 1825:




Every rational number can be expressed as a sum of three rational cubes.




Challenge



Given some rational number $r in mathbb Q $ find three rational numbers $a,b,c in mathbb Q$ such that $$r= a^3+b^3+c^3.$$



Details



Your submission should be able to compute a solution for every input given enough time and memory, that means having for instance two 32-bit int representing a fraction is not sufficient.



Examples



$$ beginalign
30 &= 3982933876681^3 - 636600549515^3 - 3977505554546^3 \
52 &= 60702901317^3 + 23961292454^3 - 61922712865^3 \
frac3071728 &= left(frac12right)^3 + left(frac13right)^3 + left(frac14right)^3 \
0 &= 0^3 + 0^3 + 0^3 \
1 &= left(frac12right)^3 + left(frac23right)^3 + left(frac56right)^3\
42 &= left(frac1810423509232right)^3 + left(frac-1495210609right)^3 + left(frac-25454944right)^3
endalign$$

            @Delfad0r There is a "consensus" that you do not have to count a possible import, that is only needed to construct the type needed, if you do not explicitly need anything from that import for defining your function. (And you can assume that the correct type is passed to your function, when it is called.)
