Suppose \(a, b, c\) are three positive integers with \(\mathrm{gcd}=1\). We consider the function \(f(a, b, c)\) defined to be the largest integer not representable as a positive integral linear combination of \(a, b, c\). We give a new lower bound for \(f(a, b, c)\) which is shown to be tight, and
Let X k =[a 1 , a 2 , ..., a k ], k>1, be a subset of N such that gcd(X k )=1. We shall say that a natural number n is dependent (on X k ) if there are nonnegative integers x i such that n has a representation n= k i=1 x i a i , else independent. The Frobenius number g(X k ) of X k is the greatest i
