Consider a natural number n. Let t(k) denote the least common multiple (LCM) of {1, 2, ..., k} and Q(t(k)) denote the quotient of n when divided by t(k). Then the number M(n,k) of partitions of n with k parts can be expressed as a polynomial in Q(t(k)) with the leading coefficient (that is, the coefficient of Q(t(k))^(k-1)) c(k-1, k).
