FORMULA
a(n) = denominator(V(5,1;n)) with V(5,1;n) = Sum_{k=0..n} 1/((k + 1)*(5*k + 1)) = Sum_{k=0..n} 1/A051624(k+1) = (1/4)*Sum_{k=0..n} (1/(k + 1/5) - 1/(k+1)). For the formula in terms of the digamma function see A294520.
EXAMPLE
See A294520 for the rationals.
PROG
(PARI) a(n) = denominator(sum(k=0, n, 1/((k + 1)*(5*k + 1)))); \\ Michel Marcus, Nov 15 2017
