Without loss of generality we may assume c≤a≤b.
Let c = a-n & b = a+m where m,n≥0.
Using elementary algebra we can find that,
3b2+3c2-a3 ≥ 3a2+3c2-b3
This is because-
3(a+m)2 + 3(a-n)2 - a3 ≥ 3a2+3(a-n)2-(a+m)3
where equality holds only when m=n=0.
Since in the above equations the RHS and the LHS of the inequality are both equal to 25.
m=n=0 or a=b=c
Therefore,
3b2+3c2-a3
=3a2+3a2-a3 =25
or, a=5
Therfore a=b=c=5
