FORMULA
a(n) = A221918(n,5) = numerator(n*5/(n+5)) = n*5/gcd(n*5,n+5) = n*5/gcd(25,n+5), n >= 5.
a(n) = 2*a(n-25)-a(n-50). - Colin Barker, Feb 25 2013
Sum_{k=5..n} a(k) ~ (521/250) * n^2. - Amiram Eldar, Oct 09 2023
EXAMPLE
a(10) = numerator(50/15) = numerator(10/3) = 10 = 50/gcd(50,15)= 50/5 = 50/gcd(25,15).
