\(a,\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{12}+\frac{1}{20}+\frac{1}{30}+\frac{1}{42}\)
\(=\frac{1}{1.2}+\frac{1}{2.3}+\frac{1}{3.4}+\frac{1}{4.5}+\frac{1}{5.6}+\frac{1}{6.7}\)
\(=1-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3}-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{5}+\frac{1}{5}-\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{6}-\frac{1}{7}\)
\(=1-\frac{1}{7}\)
\(=\frac{6}{7}\)
\(b,\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{16}+\frac{1}{32}\)
Ta có :
\(\frac{1}{2}=1-\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}\)
\(\frac{1}{8}=\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8}\)
\(\frac{1}{16}=\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{16}\)
\(\frac{1}{32}=\frac{1}{16}-\frac{1}{32}\)
Thay vào ta có :
\(=1-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{4}-\frac{1}{8}+\frac{1}{8}-\frac{1}{16}+\frac{1}{16}-\frac{1}{32}\)
\(=1-\frac{1}{32}\)
\(=\frac{31}{32}\)
\(c,\)\(\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{8}+...+\frac{1}{256}\)
Ta có :
\(\frac{1}{2}=1-\frac{1}{2}\)
\(\frac{1}{4}=\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}\)
...................
\(\frac{1}{256}=\frac{1}{128}-\frac{1}{256}\)
Thay vào ta có :
\(=\)\(1-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{4}+...+\frac{1}{128}-\frac{1}{256}\)
\(=1-\frac{1}{256}\)
\(=\frac{255}{256}\)
