%N Period of unit fractions having periodic decimal expansions.

%C See A007732, which is the main entry for this sequence.

%F a(n) = A007732(A085837(n)). - _Kevin Ryde_, May 05 2023

%e The first unit fraction considered is 1/3 because both 1/1 and 1/2 have finite decimal expansions.

%e a(1) = 1 because 1/3=.33333... whose repeating portion, 3, is of length 1.

%e Note: 1/4 and 1/5 are skipped because their decimal expansions are finite.

%e a(2) = 1 because 1/6=.166666... whose repeating portion, 6, is of length 1.

%e a(3) = 6 because 1/7 =.142857142857... whose repeating portion, 142857, is of length 6.

%Y Cf. A085837, A007732.

%K nonn,base

%O 0,3
