Let PP be a finite set of primes with ∣P∣≥2\lvert P\rvert \geq 2 and let {a1<a2<⋯ }={n∈N:if p∣n then p∈P}\{a_1<a_2<\cdots\}=\{ n\in \mathbb{N} : \textrm{if }p\mid n\textrm{ then }p\in P\}. Is the sum ∑n=1∞1[a1,…,an],\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{[a_1,\ldots,a_n]}, where [a1,…,an][a_1,\ldots,a_n] is the lowest common multiple of a1,…,ana_1,\ldots,a_n, irrational?
