A038627 Number of solutions x to n * pi(x) = x, where pi(x) = number of primes <= x. 15

%S 0,4,3,3,6,7,6,6,3,9,1,18,11,12,21,3,10,33,31,32,24,8,13,32,35,4

%N Number of solutions x to n * pi(x) = x, where pi(x) = number of primes <= x.

%C Equivalently, a(n) is number of solutions x to the equation pi(n*x) = x. - _Farideh Firoozbakht_, Jan 09 2005. For example, a(2) = 4 because 1, 2, 3 & 4 are all solutions of pi(2*x) = x and a(11) = 1 because 15927 is the only solution of the equation pi(11*x) = x.

%H Eric Weisstein's World of Mathematics, <a href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/PrimeCountingFunction.html">Prime Counting Function.</a>

%e 11*pi(x) = x has only 1 solution, so a(11) = 1.
