a)\(\frac{1}{n\left(n+1\right)\left(n+2\right)}=\frac{1}{2}.\frac{1}{n+1}.\left(\frac{1}{n}-\frac{1}{n+2}\right)\)=\(\frac{1}{2}.\frac{1}{n\left(n+1\right)}-\frac{1}{2}.\frac{1}{\left(n+1\right)\left(n+2\right)}\)= \(\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{n}-\frac{1}{n+1}\right)-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{n+1}-\frac{1}{n+2}\right)\)
=> a = \(\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{1}-\frac{1}{2}\right)-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}\right)\)+\(\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}\right)-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}\right)\)+....+\(\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2018}-\frac{1}{2019}\right)-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2019}-\frac{1}{2020}\right)\)=\(\frac{1}{2}\left(1-\frac{1}{2}\right)-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2019}-\frac{1}{2020}\right)\)=\(\frac{1}{4}\left(1-\frac{1}{2019.1010}\right)\)=\(\frac{2019.1010-1}{2.2019.2020}\)
b) tương tự \(\frac{1}{n\left(n+1\right)\left(n+2\right)\left(n+3\right)}=\left(\frac{1}{n}-\frac{1}{n+1}\right)\left(\frac{1}{n+2}-\frac{1}{n+3}\right)\)=\(\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{n}-\frac{1}{n+2}\right)-\left(\frac{1}{n+1}-\frac{1}{n+2}\right)\)-\(\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{1}{n}-\frac{1}{n+3}\right)+\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{n+1}-\frac{1}{n+3}\right)\)=\(\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{1}{n}-\frac{1}{n+1}\right)-\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{1}{n+1}-\frac{1}{n+2}\right)\)+\(\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{1}{n+2}-\frac{1}{n+3}\right)\)= M-P+N
Với n từ 1 đến 2017 thì
M= \(\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{1}{1}-\frac{1}{2}\right)+\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}\right)+...\)+\(\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{1}{2017}-\frac{1}{2018}\right)\)=\(\frac{1}{6}\left(1-\frac{1}{2018}\right)=\frac{2017}{6.2018}\)
N= \(\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}\right)+\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{5}\right)+...+\)\(\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{1}{2019}-\frac{1}{2020}\right)=\)\(\frac{1}{6}\left(\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{2020}\right)=\frac{2017}{6.3.2020}\)
P= \(\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}\right)+\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}\right)+...+\)\(\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{1}{2018}-\frac{1}{2019}\right)\)= \(\frac{1}{3}\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2019}\right)=\frac{2017}{3.2.2019}\)
M+N-P = \(\frac{2017}{6}\left(\frac{1}{2018}+\frac{1}{3.2020}-\frac{1}{2019}\right)\)=\(\frac{2017}{6}.\left(\frac{1}{2018.2019}+\frac{1}{3.2020}\right)\)
= \(\frac{2017\left(1010+1009.673\right)}{3.2018.2019.2020}\)
