For a given positive real number \(A\) and a natural number \(n\) there exist infinitely many natural numbers \(m_1,m_2,\dots, m_n\) such that \[ D=A- \sum_{i=1}^n \frac{1}{m_i}>0. \] Then Kulkarni's question is the following: Is there a smallest such \(D\) and, if there is, how to find \(m_1,m_2,\dots, m_n\)? This paper only deals with the case where \(A\) is a unit fraction.
