Abstract

‎We obtain the asymptotic expansion of the sequence with general term $\frac{A_n}{G_n}$‎, ‎where $A_n$ and $G_n$ are the arithmetic and geometric means of the numbers $\d(1),\d(2),\dots,\d(n)$‎, ‎with $\d(n)$ denoting the number of positive divisors of $n$‎. ‎Also‎, ‎we obtain some explicit bounds concerning $G_n$ and $\frac{A_n}{G_n}$.
