Question

\(\dfrac{1}{99\cdot97}-\dfrac{1}{97\cdot95}-\dfrac{1}{95\cdot93}-...-\dfrac{1}{5\cdot3}-\dfrac{1}{3\cdot1}\)

Answer 1

\(=\dfrac{1}{99\cdot97}-\left(\dfrac{1}{1\cdot3}+\dfrac{1}{3\cdot5}+...+\dfrac{1}{95\cdot97}\right)\)

\(=\dfrac{1}{99\cdot97}-\dfrac{1}{2}\left(\dfrac{2}{1\cdot3}+\dfrac{2}{3\cdot5}+...+\dfrac{2}{95\cdot97}\right)\)

\(=\dfrac{1}{99\cdot97}-\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot\left(1-\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{3}-\dfrac{1}{5}+...+\dfrac{1}{95}-\dfrac{1}{97}\right)\)

\(=\dfrac{1}{99\cdot97}-\dfrac{48}{97}=\dfrac{1-48\cdot99}{97\cdot99}=\dfrac{-4751}{9603}\)
