Find $C$ such that $x^2 - 47x - C = 0$ has integer roots, and further conditions?

Have been working on this for years. Need a system which proves that there exists a number $C$ which has certain properties. I will give a specific example, but am looking for a system which could possibly be generalized. Find (or prove there exists) $C$, such that the quadratic $x^2 - 47x - C = 0$ has integer roots, and furthermore, $C$ must have ALL OF $2$, $3$ and $5$ as its only prime factors (though each of these can be to any positive integer power).
