%N a(n) = 3*n - sum of divisors of n.

%C The first zero term occurs at n = 120. The first negative term is a(180) = -6. For any k, k*n - sigma(n) is negative for some n. See A023199. - _T. D. Noe_, Aug 07 2003

%F a(n) = A008585(n) - A000203(n). - _Omar E. Pol_, Sep 30 2017

%F Sum_{k=1..n} a(k) ~ c * n^2 / 2, where c = 3 - zeta(2) = 1.355065... . - _Amiram Eldar_, Mar 25 2024

%e For n=4, 3n=12, sum of divisors of n is 1+2+4=7, so a(4)=12-7=5.
