Giải
Cách 1:
S = 1x2 + 2x3 + 3x4 + ……………… + 11x12 + 12x13
3S=1x2x3 + 2x3x3 + 3x4x3+ ………. + 11x12x3 + 12x13x3
Ta lấy K = 1x2x3 +2x3x4 + 3x4x5 + …… + 11x12x13 + 12x13x14
- 3S = 1x2x3 + 2x3x3 + 3x4x3+ ……… + 11x12x3 + 12x13x3
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
K – 3S = 0 + 2x3x1 + 3x4x2 + …… .. + 11x12x10 + 12x13x11
K – 3S = K – 12x13x14
Từ đó suy ra: 3S = 12x13x14
S = 4x13x14 = 728
Cách 2:
S x 3 = 1x2x3 + 2x3x(4-1) + 3x4x(5-2) + …. + 11x12x(13-10) + 12x13x(14-11)
S x 3 = 1x2x3 + 2x3x4 – 2x3x1 + 3x4x5 – 3x4x2 + …..+ 11x12x13 – 11x12x10 +12x13x14 – 12x13x11
S x 3 = 12 x 13 x14
S = 4 x 13 x 14
S = 728
Xét 3S= 1 x 2 x ( 3 - 0) + 2 x 3 x (4 -1) +....+ 11 x 12 x(13 -10 ) + 12 x13 x (14-11)
= 1 x2 x 3 -1x2x3 +2 x3 x4 +.... -10x11x12 +11x 12 x13 -11x12 x13 +12x13x14
=12 x 13 x14 ---> S=\(\frac{12\times13\times14}{3}=728\)
