2013 AIME I Problem 15

Let N be the number of ordered triples (A,B,C) of integers satisfying the conditions:

(a) 0\le A<B<C\le99,

(b) there exist integers a, b, and c, and prime p where 0\le b<a<c<p,

(c) p divides A-a, B-b, and C-c, and

(d) each ordered triple (A,B,C) and each ordered triple (b,a,c) form arithmetic sequences. Find N.

Leading zeroes must be inputted, so if your answer is 34, then input 034
