\(A=\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-1\right).\left(\frac{1}{3^2}-1\right).......\left(\frac{1}{100^2}-1\right)\)
\(A=\left(\frac{1}{2^2}-\frac{2^2}{2^2}\right).\left(\frac{1}{3^2}-\frac{3^2}{3^2}\right).....\left(\frac{1}{100^2}-\frac{100^2}{100^2}\right)\)
\(A=\left(-\frac{3}{4}\right).\left(-\frac{8}{9}\right)........\left(-\frac{9999}{10000}\right)\)
\(A=\frac{\left(-3\right).\left(-8\right).....\left(-9999\right)}{4.9...10000}=\frac{1.\left(-3\right).2.\left(-4\right)......99.\left(-101\right)}{2.2.3.3.....100.100}\)
\(A=\frac{\left(1.2.3....99\right).\left[\left(-3\right).\left(-4\right)......\left(-101\right)\right]}{\left(2.3.4....100\right).\left(2.3.4...100\right)}=\frac{1.\left(-101\right)}{100.\left(-1.\right).\left(-1\right)....\left(-1\right).2}=\frac{-101}{100.2}=\frac{-101}{200}\)
Ta thấy \(\frac{-101}{200}< \frac{-100}{200}=\frac{-1}{2}\Rightarrow A< -\frac{1}{2}\)
