Question

C= 55/6x11 + 55/11x16 + 55/16x21 55/21x26 55/ 26x31

Answer 1

\(\dfrac{55}{6x11}+\dfrac{55}{11x16}+\dfrac{55}{21x16}+\dfrac{55}{21x26}+\dfrac{55}{31x26}\)

\(=55\left(\dfrac{1}{6x11}+\dfrac{1}{11x16}+\dfrac{1}{21x16}+\dfrac{1}{21x26}+\dfrac{1}{31x26}\right)\)

\(=55\left(\dfrac{1}{5}x\left(\dfrac{1}{6}-\dfrac{1}{11}\right)+\dfrac{1}{5}x\left(\dfrac{1}{11}-\dfrac{1}{16}\right)+\dfrac{1}{5}x\left(\dfrac{1}{16}-\dfrac{1}{21}\right)+\dfrac{1}{5}x\left(\dfrac{1}{21}-\dfrac{1}{26}\right)+\dfrac{1}{5}x\left(\dfrac{1}{26}-\dfrac{1}{31}\right)\right)\)

\(=55x\dfrac{1}{5}x\left(\dfrac{1}{6}-\dfrac{1}{11}+\dfrac{1}{11}-\dfrac{1}{16}+\dfrac{1}{16}-\dfrac{1}{21}+\dfrac{1}{21}-\dfrac{1}{26}+\dfrac{1}{26}-\dfrac{1}{31}\right)\)

\(=11x\left(\dfrac{1}{6}-\dfrac{1}{31}\right)=11x\left(\dfrac{31-6}{186}\right)=11x\dfrac{25}{186}=\dfrac{275}{186}\)

Answer 2

C=\(\dfrac{55}{6\cdot11}\)+\(\dfrac{55}{11\cdot16}\)+\(\dfrac{55}{16\cdot21}\)+\(\dfrac{55}{21\cdot26}\)+\(\dfrac{55}{26\cdot31}\)

 =\(\dfrac{1}{6}\)-\(\dfrac{1}{11}\)+\(\dfrac{1}{11}\)-\(\dfrac{1}{16}\)+\(\dfrac{1}{16}\)-\(\dfrac{1}{21}\)+\(\dfrac{1}{21}\)-\(\dfrac{1}{26}\)+\(\dfrac{1}{26}\)-\(\dfrac{1}{31}\)

 =\(\dfrac{1}{6}\)-\(\dfrac{1}{31}\)=\(\dfrac{25}{186}\)

Answer 3

\(C=\dfrac{55}{6\times11}+\dfrac{55}{11\times16}+\dfrac{55}{16\times21}+\dfrac{55}{21\times26}+\dfrac{55}{26\times31}\)

\(\dfrac{1}{11}C=\dfrac{5}{6\times11}+\dfrac{5}{11\times16}+\dfrac{5}{16\times21}+\dfrac{5}{21\times26}+\dfrac{5}{26\times31}\)

\(\dfrac{1}{11}C=\dfrac{1}{6}-\dfrac{1}{11}+\dfrac{1}{11}-\dfrac{1}{16}+\dfrac{1}{16}-\dfrac{1}{21}+\dfrac{1}{21}-\dfrac{1}{26}+\dfrac{1}{26}-\dfrac{1}{31}\)

\(\dfrac{1}{11}C=\dfrac{1}{6}-\dfrac{1}{31}=\dfrac{25}{186}\)

\(C=\dfrac{25}{186}:\dfrac{1}{11}=\dfrac{275}{186}\)
