The taxicab distance between points $(x_1, y_1$) and $(x_2, y_2)$ is $|x_2 -x_1|+|y_2 -y_1|$.

After swimming around the ocean with some snorkling gear, Joshua walks back to the beach where Alexis works on a mural in the sand beside where they drew out symbol lists. Joshua walks directly over the mural without paying any attention.
"You're a square, Josh."
"No, $\textit{you're}$ a square," retorts Joshua. "In fact, you're a $\textit{cube}$, which is $50\%$ freakier than a square by dimension. And before you tell me I'm a hypercube, I'll remind you that mom and dad confirmed that they could not have given birth to a four dimension being."
"Okay, you're a cubist caricature of male immaturity," asserts Alexis.
Knowing nothing about cubism, Joshua decides to ignore Alexis and walk to where he stashed his belongings by a beach umbrella. He starts thinking about cubes and computes some sums of cubes, and some cubes of sums: \begin{align*}1^3+1^3+1^3&=3,\\1^3+1^3+2^3&=10,\\1^3+2^3+2^3&=17,\\2^3+2^3+2^3&=24,\\1^3+1^3+3^3&=29,\\1^3+2^3+3^3&=36,\\(1+1+1)^3&=27,\\(1+1+2)^3&=64,\\(1+2+2)^3&=125,\\(2+2+2)^3&=216,\\(1+1+3)^3&=125,\\(1+2+3)^3&=216.\end{align*} Josh recognizes that the cubes of the sums are always larger than the sum of cubes of positive integers. For instance,
\begin{align*}(1+2+4)^3&=1^3+2^3+4^3+3(1^2\cdot 2+1^2\cdot 4+2^2\cdot 1+2^2\cdot 4+4^2\cdot 1+4^2\cdot 2)+6(1\cdot 2\cdot 4)\\&>1^3+2^3+4^3.\end{align*}
Josh begins to wonder if there is a smallest value of $n$ such that \[(a+b+c)^3\leq n(a^3+b^3+c^3)\] for all natural numbers $a$, $b$, and $c$. Joshua thinks he has an answer, but doesn't know how to prove it, so he takes it to Michael who confirms Joshua's answer with a proof. What is the correct value of $n$ that Joshua found?
