x y z + = where x , y and z are integers. The aim of this paper was to
develop methods to be used in finding all solutions to this equation. Results of the study show the
existence of infinitely many solutions to this type of diophantine equation in the ring of integers
for both cases, x y = and x y ¹ . For the case when x y = , the form of solutions is given by
