Year-end appeal: Please make a donation to the OEIS Foundation to support ongoing development and maintenance of the OEIS. We are now in our 61st year, we have over 378,000 sequences, and we’ve reached 11,000 citations (which often say “discovered thanks to the OEIS”).

%N Numerators of the Dirichlet inverse of the abundancy index, sigma(n)/n.
%C Because the ratio A000203(n)/n [known as the abundancy index of n] is multiplicative, so is also its Dirichlet inverse. This sequence gives the numerator of that ratio when presented in its lowest terms, while A349630 gives the denominators. See the examples.
