Ta có:
\(\dfrac{2a+b+c+d}{a}=\dfrac{a+2b+c+d}{b}=\dfrac{a+b+2c+d}{c}=\dfrac{a+b+c+2d}{d}\)
⇔ \(\dfrac{2a+b+c+d}{a}-1=\dfrac{a+2b+c+d}{b}-1=\dfrac{a+b+2c+d}{c}-1\)
\(=\dfrac{a+b+c+2d}{d}-1\)
⇔ \(\dfrac{a+b+c+d}{a}=\dfrac{a+b+c+d}{b}=\dfrac{a+b+c+d}{c}=\dfrac{a+b+c+d}{d}\)
Nếu a+b+c+d=0
⇒a+b=−(c+d);c+b=−(a+d);c+d=−(a+b);a+d=−(c+b)
Thay vào M, ta có:
\(M=\dfrac{a+b}{-\left(a+b\right)}=\dfrac{b+c}{-\left(b+c\right)}=\dfrac{c+d}{-\left(c+d\right)}=\dfrac{a+d}{-\left(a+d\right)}=-1\)
Nếu a+b+c+d ≠0
⇒ \(a=b=c=d\)
Thay vào M, ta có
\(M=\dfrac{a+b}{a+b}=\dfrac{b+c}{b+c}=\dfrac{c+d}{c+d}=\dfrac{d+a}{d+a}=1\)
\(\text{Cùng trừ mỗi tỉ số trên 1 đơn vị ta được:}\)
\(\dfrac{2a+b+c+d}{a}-1=\dfrac{a+2b+c+d}{b}-1=\dfrac{a+b+2c+d}{c}-1=\dfrac{a+b+c+2d}{d}-1\) \(\Rightarrow\dfrac{a+b+c+d}{a}=\dfrac{a+b+c+d}{b}=\dfrac{a+b+c+d}{c}=\dfrac{a+b+c+d}{d}\)
\(\text{Từ đây ta suy ra 2 trường hợp:}\)
\(\text{Trường hợp 1:}\)
\(\text{Nếu }a+b+c+d\notin0\Rightarrow a=b=c=d\)
\(\Rightarrow M=1+1+1+1=1.4=4\)
\(\text{Trường hợp 2:}\)
\(\text{Nếu }a+b+c+d=0\text{ thì:}\)
\(a+b=-\left(c+d\right);b+c=-\left(d+a\right)\)
\(c+d=-\left(a+b\right);d+a=-\left(b+c\right)\)
\(\text{Do đó }M=\left(-1\right)+\left(-1\right)+\left(-1\right)+\left(-1\right)=-4\)
