Comments

None of the terms are superabundant (A004394) since all the superabundant numbers are practical numbers (A005153).

The least term m that is k-abundant (having sigma(m)/m > k) for k = 2, 3, ... is A005101(14) = 70, A068403(896) = 44040, A068404(792087) = 3113704440, ...

What is the least 5-abundant number (A215264) that is not practical?

Examples

			The first 5 numbers that are not practical are m = 3, 5, 7, 9, 10. Their abundancy indices sigma(m)/m are 1.333..., 1.2, 1.142..., 1.444..., 1.8. The record values occur at 3, 9 and 10.
