a ) 

Theo bài ra: (a - 4) chia hết cho 5 => (a - 4) + 20 chia hết cho 5 => a + 16 chia hết cho 5

(a - 5) chia hết cho 7 => (a - 5) + 21 chia hết cho 7 => a + 16 chia hết cho 7

(a - 6) chia hết cho 11 => (a - 6) + 22 chia hết cho 11 => a + 16 chia hết cho 11 

=> a + 16 thuộc BC(5; 7; 11) 

Mà BCNN(5; 7; 11) = 385

=> a + 16 thuộc B(385) = {0; 385; 770; ...}

=> a thuộc {-16; 369; 754;...}

Vì a là số tự nhiên nhỏ nhất

=> a = 369 

b ) \(\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+\frac{1}{5^2}+.......+\frac{1}{2011^2}+\frac{1}{2012^2}.\)

Ta có : 

\(\frac{1}{2^2}=\frac{1}{2.2}< \frac{1}{1.2}\)

\(\frac{1}{3^2}=\frac{1}{3.3}< \frac{1}{2.3}\)

.....................

\(\frac{1}{2012^2}=\frac{1}{2012.2012}< \frac{1}{2011.2012}\)

Ta có :

\(\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+\frac{1}{5^2}+.......+\frac{1}{2011^2}+\frac{1}{2012^2}< \frac{1}{1.2}+\frac{1}{2.3}+...+\frac{1}{2011.2012}\)

\(\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+\frac{1}{5^2}+.......+\frac{1}{2011^2}+\frac{1}{2012^2}< 1-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}+...+\frac{1}{2011}-\frac{1}{2012}\)

\(\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+\frac{1}{5^2}+.......+\frac{1}{2011^2}+\frac{1}{2012^2}< 1-\frac{1}{2012}\)

\(\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+\frac{1}{5^2}+.......+\frac{1}{2011^2}+\frac{1}{2012^2}.< \frac{2011}{2012}\)

Mà \(\frac{2011}{2012}< 1\)

\(\Rightarrow\)\(\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+\frac{1}{5^2}+.......+\frac{1}{2011^2}+\frac{1}{2012^2}< 1\)

\(b)\)\(\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+\frac{1}{5^2}+...+\frac{1}{2011^2}+\frac{1}{2012^2}\)​

\(< \)\(\frac{1}{1.2}+\frac{1}{2.3}+\frac{1}{3.4}+\frac{1}{4.5}+\frac{1}{2010.2011}+\frac{1}{2011.2012}\)

\(< \)\(1-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{5}+...+\frac{1}{2011}-\frac{1}{2012}\)

\(< \)\(1-\frac{1}{2012}\)\(=\frac{2011}{2012}< 1\)

Vậy Biểu thức    \(\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+\frac{1}{5^2}+...+\frac{1}{2011^2}+\frac{1}{2012^2}\)\(< 1\)

\(a)\)

Theo bài ra: \(\left(a-4\right)⋮5\Rightarrow\left(a-4\right)+20⋮5\Rightarrow a+16⋮5\)

\(\left(a-5\right)⋮7\Rightarrow\left(a-5\right)+21⋮7\Rightarrow a+16⋮7\)

\(\left(a-6\right)⋮11\Rightarrow\left(a-6\right)+22⋮11\Rightarrow a+16⋮11\)

\(\Rightarrow\) \(a+16\in BC\left(5;7;11\right)\)

Mà \(BCNN\left(5;7;11\right)=385\)

\(\Rightarrow\) \(a+16\in B\left(385\right)=\left\{0;385;770;...\right\}\)

\(\Rightarrow\) \(a\in\left\{-16;369;754;...\right\}\)

Vì a là số tự nhiên nhỏ nhất \(\Rightarrow\) \(a=369\)
