%C A079939 The n-th greedy frac multiple of x is the smallest integer that does not cause Sum_{k=1..n} frac(a(k)*x) to exceed unity; an infinite number of terms appear as the denominators of the convergents to the continued fraction of x.
%e A079939 a(4) = 14 since frac(1x) + frac(3x) + frac(7x) + frac(14x) < 1, while frac(1x) + frac(3x) + frac(7x) + frac(k*x) > 1 for all k>7 and k<14.
