For k >= 0, define Q(k) = A002485(2k)/A002486(2k) (convergents to Pi that are less than Pi), so Pi = Sum_{k>=1} (Q(k) - Q(k-1)). Then a(n) is the denominator of Q(n) - Q(n-1).

			a(2) = 106 since A002485(4)/A002486(4) = 333/106, A002485(2)/A002486(2) = 3/1, and 333/106 - 3/1 = 15/106 (see table below).
Pi = 3/1 + 15/106 + 73/877203 + 1/2195225334 + 2/17599271777 + 3/360950005720 + 7/17348726394920 + ....
