Problem Statement

Determine all functions f:R×RRf:\mathbb{R}\times\mathbb{R}\to\mathbb{R} that satisfies the equation f(x+y+z3,a+b+c3)=f(x,a)f(y,b)f(z,c)f\left(\frac{x+y+z}{3},\frac{a+b+c}{3}\right)=f(x,a)f(y,b)f(z,c) for any real numbers x,y,z,a,b,cx,y,z,a,b,c such that az+bx+cyay+bz+cxaz+bx+cy\neq ay+bz+cx.
