Question

S =1/1.3-1/2.4+1/3.5-1/4.6+1/5.7 - 1/6.8+1/7.9-1/8.10

Answer 1

\(S=\frac{1}{1.3}-\frac{1}{2.4}+\frac{1}{3.5}-\frac{1}{4.6}+\frac{1}{5.7}-\frac{1}{6.8}+\frac{1}{7.9}-\frac{1}{8.10}\)

\(S=\left(\frac{1}{1.3}+\frac{1}{3.5}+\frac{1}{5.7}+\frac{1}{7.9}\right)-\frac{1}{2.4}-\frac{1}{4.6}-\frac{1}{6.8}-\frac{1}{8.10}\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{2}{1.3}+\frac{2}{3.5}+\frac{2}{5.7}+\frac{2}{7.9}\right)-\left(\frac{1}{2.4}+\frac{1}{4.6}+\frac{1}{6.8}+\frac{1}{8.10}\right)\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{2}{1.3}+\frac{2}{3.5}+\frac{2}{5.7}+\frac{2}{7.9}\right)-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{2}{2.4}+\frac{2}{4.6}+\frac{2}{6.8}+\frac{2}{8.10}\right)\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}\left(1-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{7}+\frac{1}{7}-\frac{1}{9}\right)-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{10}\right)\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}\left(1-\frac{1}{9}\right)-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{10}\right)\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}\left(1-\frac{1}{9}-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{10}\right)\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}.\frac{22}{45}=\frac{11}{45}\)

Answer 2

\(S=\frac{1}{1.3}-\frac{1}{2.4}+\frac{1}{3.5}-\frac{1}{4.6}+\frac{1}{5.7}-\frac{1}{6.8}+\frac{1}{7.9}-\frac{1}{8.10}\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}.\left[\left(\frac{2}{1.3}+\frac{2}{3.5}+\frac{2}{5.7}+\frac{2}{7.9}\right)-\left(\frac{2}{2.4}+\frac{2}{4.6}+\frac{2}{6.8}+\frac{2}{8.10}\right)\right]\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}.\left[\left(1-\frac{1}{3}+...+\frac{1}{7}-\frac{1}{9}\right)-\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}+...+\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{10}\right)\right]\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}.\left[\left(1-\frac{1}{9}\right)-\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{10}\right)\right]\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}.\left(\frac{8}{9}-\frac{2}{5}\right)\)

\(S=\frac{1}{2}.\frac{22}{45}=\frac{11}{45}\)

Answer 3

\(S=\frac{1}{1.3}-\frac{1}{2.4}+\frac{1}{3.5}-\frac{1}{4.6}+\frac{1}{5.7}-\frac{1}{6.8}+\frac{1}{7.9}-\frac{1}{8.10}\)

=> \(S=\left(\frac{1}{1.3}+\frac{1}{3.5}+\frac{1}{5.7}+\frac{1}{7.9}\right)+\left(\frac{1}{2.4}+\frac{1}{4.6}+\frac{1}{6.8}+\frac{1}{8.10}\right)\)

=> \(S=\frac{1}{2}\left(1-\frac{1}{3}+.....+\frac{1}{7}-\frac{1}{9}\right)+\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}+....+\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{10}\right)\)

=> \(S=\frac{1}{2}\left(1-\frac{1}{9}\right)+\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{10}\right)\)

=> \(S=\frac{1}{2}.\frac{8}{9}+\frac{1}{2}.\frac{2}{5}\)

=> \(S=\frac{4}{9}+\frac{1}{5}\)

=> \(S=\frac{29}{45}\)
