Oct 25, 2020 at 2:56 comment added Vincent Granville Define $A_s(x),B_s(x), C_s(x)$ by replacing $p$ with $p^s$ in the original definition. Then the connection with $\zeta(1)=\infty$ is more obvious. For instance $f_s(x):=(1-2^{-s}) A_s(x)B_s(x) \rightarrow 1/\zeta(s)$ as $x\rightarrow\infty$. Thus $(s-1)/f_s(x)\rightarrow (s-1)\zeta(s)$. And $\lim_{s\rightarrow 1^+} (s-1)\zeta(s) = 1$. I don't know if this offers a different way to solve the problem.

Oct 25, 2020 at 1:15 comment added Vincent Granville Yes these are products. For instance, $A(x)$ is the probability for a large number $N$ to to not be divisible by any prime $p\leq x$ congruent to 3 modulo 4.
Oct 25, 2020 at 1:11 comment added Anurag Sahay Did you mean to use \prod and not \sum?
