Với a , b , c là số hữu tỉ t/m a = b + c ta luôn có \(\sqrt{\frac{1}{a^2}+\frac{1}{b^2}+\frac{1}{c^2}}=\left|\frac{1}{a}-\frac{1}{b}-\frac{1}{c}\right|\)
Thật vậy : \(\sqrt{\frac{1}{a^2}+\frac{1}{b^2}+\frac{1}{c^2}}=\sqrt{\left(\frac{1}{a}-\frac{1}{b}-\frac{1}{c}\right)^2-2\left(\frac{1}{bc}-\frac{1}{ac}-\frac{1}{ab}\right)}\)
\(=\sqrt{\left(\frac{1}{a}-\frac{1}{b}-\frac{1}{c}\right)^2-\frac{2.abc\left(a-b-c\right)}{a^2b^2c^2}}\)(quy đồng lên )
\(=\sqrt{\left(\frac{1}{a}-\frac{1}{b}-\frac{1}{c}\right)^2}\left(\text{do a-b-c=0}\right)\)
\(=\left|\frac{1}{a}-\frac{1}{b}-\frac{1}{c}\right|\)
Áp dụng ta được \(S=\left|\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{1}-1\right|+\left|\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{2}-1\right|+...+\left|\frac{1}{100}-\frac{1}{99}-1\right|\)
\(=1+1-\frac{1}{2}+1+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}+...+1+\frac{1}{99}-\frac{1}{100}\)
\(=\left(1+1+1+...+1\right)+\left(1+\frac{1}{2}+...+\frac{1}{99}\right)-\left(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{100}\right)\)
(có 99 số 1)
\(=99+1-\frac{1}{100}\)
\(=100-\frac{1}{100}=\frac{9999}{100}\)
