compute the summation



$sum_ n=1^infty fracn3.5........(2n+1)= ?$



My attempts : i take $a_n =fracn3.5........(2n+1)$



Now =$frac12$ .$frac(2n+ 1) - 13.5........(2n+1)= frac12(frac13.5........(2n-1) -frac13.5........(2n+1))$



after that i can not able to proceed further,,,



pliz help me..

    Write a partial sum, delete the parentheses, and look at consecutive terms.

  • A partial sum is $sum_n=1^Mfrac12left(frac13cdot5...(2n-1)-frac13cdot5...(2n+1)right)=frac12-frac13cdot5...(2M+1)$, which tends to $frac12$ since the last term tends to $0$. Therefore, the sum of your series is $frac12$. Note: Opening parenthesis before knowing that the partial sums converge, like it was done in your selected answer, is not justified. If you did it for another series like $sum_n=1^infty(1-1)$ you get a series with a different character.

You don't need to compute $a_n = frac12(frac13.5…(2n-1) -frac13.5…(2n+1))$



You need to compute $sum_n=1^K a_n$.



Which is $frac 12(frac 11 - frac 13) + frac 12(frac 13-frac 13cdot 5)+.....+ frac12(frac13.5…(2K-3) -frac13.5…(2K-1)) + frac12(frac13.5…(2K-1) -frac13.5…(2K+1))$



And the compute $sum_n=1^infty a_n =limlimits_Kto inftysum_n=1^K a_n$



====



Note: If $a_n = frac12(frac13.5…(2n-1) -frac13.5…(2n+1))$ we can let $b_n =frac13.5…(2n-1)$



and then we have



$$sum_n=1^inftyfrac 12 (b_n - b_n+1)$$.



And you should be able so solve that even if you don't have any frigging idea what $b_n$ was defined as.

    You don't need to compute $a_n = frac12(frac13.5…(2n-1) -frac13.5…(2n+1))$



    You need to compute $sum_n=1^K a_n$.

    And the compute $sum_n=1^infty a_n =limlimits_Kto inftysum_n=1^K a_n$



    ====



    Note: If $a_n = frac12(frac13.5…(2n-1) -frac13.5…(2n+1))$ we can let $b_n =frac13.5…(2n-1)$



    and then we have



    $$sum_n=1^inftyfrac 12 (b_n - b_n+1)$$.



    And you should be able so solve that even if you don't have any frigging idea what $b_n$ was defined as.
