%N Numbers of carefree couples (a,b) with a,b<=n.

%C (a, b) is a carefree couple if gcd(a, b) = 1 and a is squarefree (A005117). - _Amiram Eldar_, Mar 03 2021

%F From _Amiram Eldar_, Mar 03 2021: (Start)

%F a(n) = (A118259(n) + A118260(n))/2.

%F a(n) ~ A065464 * n^2 + O(n*log(n)). (End)

%e a(4) = 9 because there are 9 ordered pairs (i,j) of positive integers such that 1<=i,j<=4, gcd(i,j)=1 and i is squarefree: (1,1), (2,1), (3,1), (1,2), (3,2), (1,3), (2,3), (1,4), (3,4). - _Geoffrey Critzer_, Jan 12 2015
