A144970 Integers in the sequence of rationals defined by b(1) = 61, b(n) = b(n-1) + (n+60)/n for n > 1. 0

%S 61,92,113,129,142,153

%N Integers in the sequence of rationals defined by b(1) = 61, b(n) = b(n-1) + (n+60)/n for n > 1.

%C b(n) = n + 60*sum_{k=1..n} 1/k. For n >= 7 the denominator of sum_{k=1..n} 1/k is a multiple of 7, but 7 is not a divisor of 60. Hence b(n) is not an integer for n >= 7.

%e b(1) through b(10) are 61, 92, 113, 129, 142, 153, 1138/7, 2395/14, 7507/42, 7801/42; only the first six of them are integers.
