Abstract We prove that the integer part of the reciprocal of the tail of ζ(s) $\zeta (s)$ at a rational number s=1p $s=\frac{1}{p}$ for any integer with p≥5 $p \geq 5$ or s=2p $s=\frac{2}{p}$ for any odd integer with p≥5 $p \geq 5$ can be described essentially as the integer part of an explicit quantity corresponding to it. To deal with the case when s=2p $s=\frac{2}{p}$, we use a result on the finiteness of integral points of certain curves over Q $\mathbb{Q}$.
