FORMULA
a(n) = A007732(A085837(n)). - Kevin Ryde, May 05 2023
EXAMPLE
The first unit fraction considered is 1/3 because both 1/1 and 1/2 have finite decimal expansions.
a(1) = 1 because 1/3=.33333... whose repeating portion, 3, is of length 1.
Note: 1/4 and 1/5 are skipped because their decimal expansions are finite.
a(2) = 1 because 1/6=.166666... whose repeating portion, 6, is of length 1.
a(3) = 6 because 1/7 =.142857142857... whose repeating portion, 142857, is of length 6.
