COMMENT

3-almost prime analogue of A120927. The division is exact for n = 1, 2, 3, 4. for what n > 9 does a(n) drop below or rise above 4?

The division is exact for n = 1,2,3,4,73,113,163,173,263,499,557; no others up to 10000. First 3 after n=9 is a(109) = floor(435/109). Sequence then mixes 3's and 4's until a(557) = 4. It is then 3 for a long time, although a(812) = floor(3236/812) comes close to 4. Note that lim_{n->infinity} a(n) = infinity, although divergence is very slow. - Franklin T.

FORMULA

a(n) = Floor[(nth 3-almost prime)/n] = Floor[A014612(n)/n].

EXAMPLE

a(1) = Floor[8/1] = floor [8] = 8.

a(2) = Floor[12/2] = floor [6] = 6.

a(3) = Floor[18/3] = floor [6] = 6.

a(4) = Floor[20/4] = floor [5] = 5.

a(5) = Floor[27/5] = floor [5.4] = 5.

a(47) = Floor[190/47] = floor [4.0425531] = 4.
