A = \(\dfrac{3}{2}\) - \(\dfrac{5}{6}\) + \(\dfrac{7}{12}\) - \(\dfrac{9}{20}\) + \(\dfrac{11}{30}\) - \(\dfrac{13}{42}\) + \(\dfrac{15}{56}\) - \(\dfrac{17}{72}\)
A = (1 + \(\dfrac{1}{2}\)) - (\(\dfrac{1}{2}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{3}\)) + (\(\dfrac{1}{3}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{4}\)) - (\(\dfrac{1}{4}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{5}\)) + (\(\dfrac{1}{5}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{6}\)) - (\(\dfrac{1}{6}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{7}\)) + (\(\dfrac{1}{7}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{8}\)) - (\(\dfrac{1}{8}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{9}\))
A = 1 + \(\dfrac{1}{2}\) - \(\dfrac{1}{2}\) - \(\dfrac{1}{3}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{3}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{4}\) - \(\dfrac{1}{4}\) - \(\dfrac{1}{5}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{5}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{6}\) - \(\dfrac{1}{6}\) - \(\dfrac{1}{7}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{7}\) + \(\dfrac{1}{8}\) - \(\dfrac{1}{8}\) - \(\dfrac{1}{9}\)
A = 1 - \(\dfrac{1}{9}\)
A = \(\dfrac{8}{9}\)
\(A=\left(1+\dfrac{1}{2}\right)-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{1}{3}\right)+\left(\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{4}\right)-\left(\dfrac{1}{4}+\dfrac{1}{5}\right)+\left(\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{6}\right)-\left(\dfrac{1}{6}+\dfrac{1}{7}\right)+\left(\dfrac{1}{7}+\dfrac{1}{8}\right)-\left(\dfrac{1}{8}+\dfrac{1}{9}\right)\)
\(A=1+\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{1}{2}-\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{3}+\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{4}-\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{5}+\dfrac{1}{6}-\dfrac{1}{6}-\dfrac{1}{7}+\dfrac{1}{7}+\dfrac{1}{8}-\dfrac{1}{8}-\dfrac{1}{9}\)
\(A=1+\dfrac{1}{9}=\dfrac{10}{9}\)
