The positive integers from 1 to \(n\) are arranged in a sequence, initially in ascending order. In one move, we can swap the positions of two of the numbers, provided they share a common divisor greater than 1. Let \(s_n\) be the number of sequences that can be obtained with a finite number of moves.
