Ta có : \(1+\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+...+\frac{1}{100^2}< 1+\frac{1}{1.2}+\frac{1}{2.3}+...+\frac{1}{99.100}\)
Đặt B = \(1+\frac{1}{1.2}+\frac{1}{2.3}+\frac{1}{3.4}+...+\frac{1}{99.100}\)
\(\Rightarrow B=1+\left(\frac{1}{1}-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}+...+\frac{1}{99}-\frac{1}{100}\right)\)
\(\Rightarrow B=1+\left(\frac{1}{1}-\frac{1}{100}\right)\Rightarrow B=1+\frac{99}{100}=2-\frac{1}{100}\)
\(\Rightarrow B< 2\)
Mà : \(A< B< 2\Rightarrow A< 2\)
Vậy A < 2
\(A=1+\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+...+\frac{1}{100^2}< \frac{1}{1\cdot2}+\frac{1}{2\cdot3}+\frac{1}{3\cdot4}+...+\frac{1}{99\cdot100}=1-\frac{1}{100}=\frac{99}{100}< 1\)mà \(1< 2\)
\(\Rightarrow A=1+\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{4^2}+...+\frac{1}{100^2}< 2\)
