A225163 Denominators of the sequence s(n) of the sum resp. product of fractions f(n) defined recursively by f(1) = 3/1; f(n+1) is chosen so that the sum and the product of the first n terms of the sequence are equal.

%C A225163 Numerators of the sequence s(n) of the sum resp. product of fractions f(n) is A165421(n+2), hence s(n) = sum(A165421(i+1)/A225156(i),i=1..n) = product(A165421(i+1)/A225156(i),i=1..n) = A165421(n+2)/a(n) = A011764(n-1)/a(n).
