FORMULA
a(n) = numerator(Sum_{k=1..n} 1/A057521(k)).
a(n)/A379584(n) = c * n + O(n^(1/2)), where c = A191622 (Cloutier et al., 2014). The error term was improved by Tóth (2017) to O(n^(1/2) * exp(-c1 * log(n)^(3/5) / log(log(n))^(1/5))) unconditionally, and O(n^(2/5) * exp(c2 * log(n) / log(log(n)))) assuming the Riemann hypothesis, where c1 and c2 are positive constants.
EXAMPLE
Fractions begin with 1, 2, 3, 13/4, 17/4, 21/4, 25/4, 51/8, 467/72, 539/72, 611/72, 629/72, ...
MATHEMATICA
f[p_, e_] := If[e > 1, p^e, 1]; powful[n_] := Times @@ f @@@ FactorInteger[n]; Numerator[Accumulate[Table[1/powful[n], {n, 1, 50}]]]
PROG
(PARI) powerful(n) = {my(f = factor(n)); prod(i=1, #f~, if(f[i, 2] > 1, f[i, 1]^f[i, 2], 1)); }
list(nmax) = {my(s = 0); for(k = 1, nmax, s += 1 / powerful(k); print1(numerator(s), ", "))};
