%N Number of primes occurring exactly once as numerators in sums generated from the set 1, 1/2, 1/3,..., 1/n.

%C For information about how often the numerator of the generated sums is prime, see A075188 and A075189; for the largest generated prime, see A075226; for the smallest odd prime not generated, see A075227.

%e For n=3 there are the following fractions as sums of 1, 1/2 and 1/3:

%e {1/3, 1/2, 5/6, 1, 4/3, 3/2, 11/6}, three numerators are prime and they occur exactly once, therefore a(3) = A075188(3) = A075189(3) = #{3, 5, 11} = 3;

%e n=4: adding 1/4 to the previous fractions gives together: 1/4, 1/3, 1/2, 1/3+1/4=7/12, 1/2+1/4=3/4, 5/6, 1, 5/6+1/4=13/12, 1+1/4=5/4, 4/3, 3/2, 4/3+1/4=19/12, 3/2+1/4=7/4, 11/6 and 11/6+1/4=25/12:

%e A075188(4) = #{7/12, 3/4, 5/6, 13/12, 5/4, 3/2, 19/12, 7/4, 11/6} = 9,

%e A075189(4) = #{3, 5, 7, 11, 13, 19} = 6,

%e a(4) = #{11, 13, 19} = 3.
