Egyptian Number (Posted on 2013-02-09) Difficulty: 3 of 5
An Egyptian number is a positive integer that can be expressed as a sum of positive integers, not necessarily distinct, such that the sum of their reciprocals is 1. For example, 32 = 2 + 3 + 9 + 18 is Egyptian because 1/2+1/3+1/9+1/18=1 . Prove that all integers greater than 23 are Egyptian.
