Ta có
\(\frac{a+1}{b^2+1}=\left(a+1\right)-\frac{ab^2+b^2}{b^2+1}\ge\left(a+1\right)-\frac{ab^2+b^2}{2b}=\left(a+1\right)-\frac{ab+b}{2}\) (1)
Tương tự \(\frac{b+1}{c^2+1}\ge\left(b+1\right)-\frac{bc+c}{2}\) (2)
và \(\frac{c+1}{a^2+1}\ge\left(a+1\right)-\frac{ca+a}{2}\) (3)
Cộng (1), (2), (3) vế theo vế:
\(VT\ge\left(a+b+c+3\right)-\frac{\left(ab+bc+ca\right)+\left(a+b+c\right)}{2}\ge6-\frac{\frac{\left(a+b+c\right)^2}{3}+3}{2}=3\)
Đẳng thức xảy ra \(\Leftrightarrow a=b=c=1\)
