  • question_answer
    Sum of the \[n\] terms of the series \[\frac{3}{{{1}^{2}}}+\frac{5}{{{1}^{2}}+{{2}^{2}}}+\frac{7}{{{1}^{2}}+{{2}^{2}}+{{3}^{2}}}\,+...\,\,\text{is}\] [Pb. CET 1999; RPET 2001]

    A) \[\frac{2n}{n+1}\]

    B) \[\frac{4n}{n+1}\]

    C) \[\frac{6n}{n+1}\]

    D) \[\frac{9n}{n+1}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[{{T}_{n}}=\frac{(2n+1)}{n(n+1)(2n+1)/6}=\frac{6}{n(n+1)}\] \[{{S}_{n}}=\Sigma ({{T}_{n}})=\Sigma \,6\,\left[ \frac{1}{n}-\frac{1}{n+1} \right]\]\[=6\left[ 1-\frac{1}{n+1} \right]\] \[{{S}_{n}}=\frac{6n}{n+1}\].
