A harmonic progression is a sequence of numbers such that their reciprocals are in arithmetic progression. Let $S_n$ represent the sum of the first $n$ terms of the harmonic progression; for example $S_3$ represents the sum of the first three terms. If the first three terms of a harmonic progression are $3,4,6$, then: $ \textbf{(A)}\ S_4=20 \qquad\textbf{(B)}\ S_4=25\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ S_5=49\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ S_6=49\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ S_2=\frac12 S_4 $
