Question

Cho S = 1/11 +1/12+1/13+1/14+1/15+1/16+1/17+1/18+1/19+1/20. So sánh S với 1/2

Answer 1

Ta có:\(\frac{1}{11}>\frac{1}{20};\frac{1}{12}>\frac{1}{20};\frac{1}{13}>\frac{1}{20};....;\frac{1}{19}>\frac{1}{20}\)

\(\Rightarrow\frac{1}{11}+\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{13}+...+\frac{1}{20}>\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{20}+...+\frac{1}{20}\)(Có 10 phân số \(\frac{1}{20}\))

\(\Rightarrow\frac{1}{11}+\frac{1}{12}+...+\frac{1}{20}>\frac{10}{20}\)\(\Leftrightarrow S>\frac{10}{20}\)

Mà \(\frac{10}{20}=\frac{1}{2}\)nên

\(\Rightarrow S>\frac{1}{2}\)
