Formula

a(n) = A061498(A002110(n)).

a(n) <= A048670(n)/2.

Example

For n = 3, A002110(3) = 30, RRS = {1, 7, 11, 13, 17, 19, 23, 29}, dRRS = {6, 4, 2, 4, 2, 4, 6}, so a(3) = 3.

Mathematica

Prog

(PARI) f(n) = {my(va = select(x->(gcd(n, x)==1), [1..n])); vd = vector(#va-1, k, va[k+1] - va[k]); #Set(vd); } \\ A061498
a(n) = f(prod(i=1, n, prime(i))); \\ Michel Marcus, Dec 19 2019
