Không mất tính tổng quát, giả sử \(a\ge b\ge c\).
Khi đó: \(\left(a-b\right)\left(b-c\right)\ge0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow ab+bc\ge ac+b^2\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left\{{}\begin{matrix}\dfrac{a}{c}+1\ge\dfrac{a}{b}+\dfrac{b}{c}\\\dfrac{c}{a}+1\ge\dfrac{c}{b}+\dfrac{b}{a}\end{matrix}\right.\)
\(\Rightarrow\dfrac{a}{b}+\dfrac{b}{c}+\dfrac{c}{a}+\dfrac{b}{a}+\dfrac{c}{b}+\dfrac{a}{c}\le2+2\left(\dfrac{a}{c}+\dfrac{c}{a}\right)\)
Vì \(1\le c\le a\le2\Rightarrow\left(\dfrac{a}{c}-2\right)\left(\dfrac{2a}{c}-1\right)\le0\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\dfrac{a}{c}+\dfrac{c}{a}\le\dfrac{5}{2}\)
\(\Rightarrow\dfrac{a}{b}+\dfrac{b}{c}+\dfrac{c}{a}+\dfrac{b}{a}+\dfrac{c}{b}+\dfrac{a}{c}\le7\)
\(\Leftrightarrow\left(a+b+c\right)\left(\dfrac{1}{a}+\dfrac{1}{b}+\dfrac{1}{c}\right)\le10\)
Đẳng thức xảy ra khi \(a=b=2;c=1\) và các hoán vị.
