Abstract: Let $a,b,c$ and $k$ be positive integers such that $1leqaleqb,a<c<2(a+b),ceb$ and $(a,b,c)=1$. Define the arithmetic function $f_k(a,b;c;n)$ by ${\displaystyle }$ sum_{n=1}^{infty}frac{f_k(a,b;c;n)}{n^s}=frac{zeta (as)zeta (bs)}{zeta^k(cs)}, Re s >1.${\displaystyle }$ Let $Delt{a}_k(a,b;c;x)$ denote the error term of the summatory function of the function $f_k(a,b;c;n).$ IN this paper we shall give two expressions of $Delt{a}_k(a,b;c;x)$. As applications, we study the so-called $(l,r)$-integers, the generalized square-full integers, the $e-r$-free integers, the divisor problem over $r$-free integers, the $e$-square-free integers. An important tool is a generalization of a method of H. L. Montgomery and R. C. Vaughan.
