Question

A=1/1.3+1/3.5+1/5.7+....+1/99.101

Answer 1

\(A=\frac{1}{1.3}+\frac{1}{3.5}+\frac{1}{5.7}+...+\frac{1}{99.101}\)

\(\Rightarrow2A=\frac{2}{1.3}+\frac{2}{3.5}+\frac{2}{5.7}+...+\frac{2}{99.101}\)

\(=\frac{1}{1}-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{7}+...+\frac{1}{99}-\frac{1}{101}\)

\(=\frac{1}{1}-\frac{1}{101}=\frac{101}{101}-\frac{1}{101}=\frac{100}{101}\)

\(\Rightarrow A=\frac{100}{101}:2=\frac{100}{101}\times\frac{1}{2}=\frac{50}{101}\)
