T(7,2) = 10 because A007306(10) = 7 and A007305(10) = 2 is the required double match, i.e., the position of the fraction 2/7 in the Farey tree is 10.
T(14,4) = T(7,2) = 10, because the fraction 4/14 reduced to lowest terms is 2/7.
T(16,12) = 8, because the fraction 12/16 reduced to lowest terms is 3/4, with the double match A007306(8)=4 and A007305(8)=3.
