Peter Kagey, Table of n, a(n) for n = 1..10011 (first 141 rows, flattened)
FORMULA
EXAMPLE
Table begins:
n\k| 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12
---+-----------------------------------------------
1 | 1,
2 | 2, 1,
3 | 3, 6, 1,
4 | 4, 4, 12, 1,
5 | 5, 10, 15, 20, 1,
6 | 6, 3, 2, 12, 30, 1,
7 | 7, 14, 21, 28, 35, 42, 1,
8 | 8, 8, 24, 8, 40, 24, 56, 1,
9 | 9, 18, 9, 36, 45, 18, 63, 72, 1,
10 | 10, 5, 30, 20, 2, 15, 70, 40, 90, 1,
11 | 11, 22, 33, 44, 55, 66, 77, 88, 99, 110, 1,
12 | 12, 12, 4, 3, 60, 4, 84, 24, 36, 60, 132, 1.
T(20,10) = 4 because 1/20 + 7/10 = 3/4, and there is no choice of numerators on the left that results in a smaller denominator on the right.
