The problem is really about prime factors. Any number divisible by several different prime numbers is also divisible by the product of those numbers.

Here's a simple example. If you know x is a number divisible by both 2 and 3, then it's also divisible by their product, 6. Try it out for some small values of x to check this.

The King's Dilemma is the same sort of thing, but you're given four numbers instead of two (7, 11, 13, and 5). But there's a little catch to it, because on the first three tries, it *doesn't* come out evenly. There's a remainder of 5 each time.

Here's where you need a little trick -- see the hint on the POAT hint page for what to do next.

Check around the OSM Tube thoroughly again. Also, you probably noticed the effect that taking one of the rubber tubes has. Look for one section that's different from the other two in terms of how the doors function.
