%N Denominator of the average position of a 1 in the reversed binary expansion of n.

%C The sequence of fractions begins: 1, 2, 3/2, 3, 2, 5/2, 2, 4, 5/2, 3, 7/3, 7/2, 8/3, 3, 5/2, 5, 3, 7/2, 8/3, 4.

%C For example, the reversed binary expansion of 18 is (0,1,0,0,1), and the average of {2,5} is 7/2, so a(18) = 2.

%C a(n) divides A000120(n). - _Robert Israel_, Oct 07 2019
