Let r(x) = A010846(x), the number of m <= x such that rad(m) | x, where rad = A007947.
Let row k of A162306 contain { m : rad(m) | k, m <= k }. Thus r(k) is the length of row k of A162306.
a(n) is the length of row A372111(n) of A162306.
Analogous to A371909, which instead regards A109890 and A109735.

EXAMPLE
Let s(x) = A372111(x) and let r(x) = A010846(x).
a(1) = 1 since r(s(1)) = r(1) = 1.
a(2) = 2 since r(s(2)) = r(3) = 2. For prime p, r(p) = card({1, p}) = 2.
a(3) = 5 since r(s(3)) = r(6) = 5. r(6) = card({1, 2, 3, 4, 6}) = 5.
a(4) = 6 since r(s(4)) = r(10) = 6. r(10) = card({1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10}) = 6.
a(5) = 5 since r(s(5)) = r(15) = 5. r(15) = card({1, 3, 5, 9, 15}) = 5.
a(6) = 11 since r(s(6)) = r(24) = 11. r(24) = card({1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 16, 18, 24}) = 11, etc.
