Bài toán tổng quát:
Với mọi n\(\in\)N* ta có: \(\frac{1}{n^3}< \frac{1}{n^3-n}=\frac{1}{n\left(n^2-1\right)}=\frac{1}{\left(n-1\right)n\left(n+1\right)}\)
Áp dụng vào bài toán:
\(\frac{1}{5^3}+\frac{1}{6^3}+\frac{1}{7^3}+...+\frac{1}{2004^3}< \frac{1}{4.5.6}+\frac{1}{5.6.7}+\frac{1}{6.7.8}+...+\frac{1}{2003.2004.2005}\)
mà \(\frac{1}{4.5.6}+\frac{1}{5.6.7}+\frac{1}{6.7.8}+...+\frac{1}{2003.2004.2005}\)
\(=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{2}{4.5.6}+\frac{2}{5.6.7}+\frac{2}{6.7.8}...+\frac{2}{2003.2004.2005}\right)\)
\(=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{4.5}-\frac{1}{5.6}+\frac{1}{5.6}-\frac{1}{6.7}+\frac{1}{6.7}-\frac{1}{7.8}...+\frac{1}{2003.2004}-\frac{1}{2004.2005}\right)\)
\(=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{4.5}-\frac{1}{2003.2004}\right)=\frac{1}{40}-\frac{1}{2.2003.2004}< \frac{1}{40}\)
=>\(\frac{1}{3.4.5}+\frac{1}{4.5.6}+\frac{1}{5.6.7}+...+\frac{1}{2002.2003.2004}< \frac{1}{40}\)
