Summary

Graphical demonstration that 1 = 1/2 + 1/3 + 1/11 + 1/23 + 1/31 + 1/(2×3×11×23×31). Each row of squares has k squares of side length 1/k, for some k in the set {2,3,11,23,31,47058}; for instance the first row has two squares of side length 1/2. Thus, each row of squares has area 1/k, and all six rows together exactly cover a unit square. The bottom row, with 47058 squares of side length 1/47058, would be too small to see in the figure, and is not shown. Sets of integers such that <img src="https://wikimedia.org/api/rest_v1/media/math/render/svg/16cea92d7b5d7eb3846a8259d154b175a526115f" class="mwe-math-fallback-image-inline mw-math-element" aria-hidden="true" style="vertical-align: -1.338ex; width:23.238ex; height:3.843ex;" alt="{\displaystyle 1=\sum 1/x_{i}+\prod 1/x_{i}}">, such as the set {2,3,11,23,31} used to construct this figure, correspond to solutions of <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zn%C3%A1m%27s_problem" class="extiw" title="en:Znám's problem">Znám's problem</a>.
