Question

Tính E = 1/1.2-1/1.2.3+1/2.3-1/2.3.4+1/3.4-1/3.4.5+...+1/99.100-1/99.100.101

 

Answer 1

\(E=\frac{1}{1.2}-\frac{1}{1.2.3}+\frac{1}{2.3}-\frac{1}{2.3.4}+....+\frac{1}{99.100}-\frac{1}{99.100.101}\)

\(=\left(\frac{1}{1.2}+\frac{1}{2.3}+...+\frac{1}{99.100}\right)-\left(\frac{1}{1.2.3}+\frac{1}{2.3.4}+...+\frac{1}{99.100.101}\right)\)

\(A=\frac{1}{1.2}+\frac{1}{2.3}+...+\frac{1}{99.100}\)

\(=1-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}+...+\frac{1}{99}-\frac{1}{100}\)

\(=1-\frac{1}{100}=\frac{99}{100}\)

\(B=\frac{1}{1.2.3}+\frac{1}{2.3.4}+...+\frac{1}{99.100.101}\)

\(=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{3-1}{1.2.3}+\frac{4-2}{2.3.4}+...+\frac{101-99}{99.100.101}\right)\)

\(=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{1.2}-\frac{1}{2.3}+\frac{1}{2.3}-\frac{1}{3.4}+...+\frac{1}{99.100}-\frac{1}{100.101}\right)\)

\(=\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{1}{1.2}-\frac{1}{100.101}\right)=\frac{5049}{20200}\)

Suy ra \(E=A-B=\frac{99}{100}-\frac{5049}{20200}=\frac{14949}{20200}\)

Answer 2

\(\frac{14949}{20200}\)
