Jul 12, 2017 at 23:39 comment added user56983 Where does $i$-th prime number not mean the sequence of primes?
Jul 12, 2017 at 23:38 comment added Gerhard Paseman Are you given n? Are you given k(n)? Can you infer the information I mention? If you are the original poster, you can say. Otherwise the best you can do is interpret. Gerhard "Has Given His Own Interpretation" Paseman, 2017.07.12.
Jul 12, 2017 at 23:32 comment added user56983 How is it not? That's what it usually means.

Jul 12, 2017 at 23:30 comment added mesel By saying that $p_i$ is $i$'th prime, is it not clear that $p_1=2,p_2=3,p_3=5 ...$.
Jul 12, 2017 at 23:29 comment added user56983 There is no $m$. $k(n)$ was the upper limit for $i$ in the residue classes for which $\{x_i \pmod{p_i}\}$ was known if $p_i$ was the $i$-th prime number. See my counter example.
