problem

If a,b,ca,b,c are positive integers less than 1313 such that \begin{align*} 2ab+bc+ca&\equiv 0\pmod{13}\\ ab+2bc+ca&\equiv 6abc\pmod{13}\\ ab+bc+2ca&\equiv 8abc\pmod {13} \end{align*}then determine the remainder when a+b+ca+b+c is divided by 1313.
Plain-text mathematical notation (without MathML)
If a,b,c are positive integers less than 13 such that \begin{align*}
2ab+bc+ca&\equiv 0\pmod{13}\\
ab+2bc+ca&\equiv 6abc\pmod{13}\\
ab+bc+2ca&\equiv 8abc\pmod {13}
\end{align*}then determine the remainder when a+b+c is divided by 13.
Original LaTeX notation
If $a,b,c$ are positive integers less than $13$ such that \begin{align*}
2ab+bc+ca&\equiv 0\pmod{13}\\
ab+2bc+ca&\equiv 6abc\pmod{13}\\
ab+bc+2ca&\equiv 8abc\pmod {13}
\end{align*}then determine the remainder when $a+b+c$ is divided by $13$.
