The sum $\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{21} \frac{3}{(4 n-1)(4 n+3)}$ is equal to
- $\frac{7}{87}$
- $\frac{7}{29}$
- $\frac{14}{87}$
- $\frac{21}{29}$
The Correct Option is B
Approach Solution - 1
So, The correct option is (B): $\frac7{29}$
Approach Solution -2
\(\overset{21}{\underset{n=1}\sum} \frac3{(4n-1)(4n+3)} = \frac3{4}\overset{21}{\underset{n=1}\sum} \frac1{(4n-1)}-\frac1{(4n+3)}\)
=43n=1∑21(4n−1)(4n+3)(4n+3)−(4n−1)
=43n=1∑214n−11−4n+31
=43(31−71+71−111+111−….+831−871)
=43(31−871)=297

- Which term of the following series is 17.25?
\(-0.25, 0.25, 0.75, \dots\) - If in a GP, the sum of the first 18 terms is equal to the sum of first 22 terms and the sum of the first 19 terms is 65, then what will be the sum of first 4 terms? (Note: \( i=\sqrt{-1} \))
- Given the series
$\frac{1}{1^4} + \frac{1}{2^4} + \frac{1}{3^4} + \cdots = \frac{\pi^4}{90},$
$\frac{1}{1^4} + \frac{1}{3^4} + \frac{1}{5^4} + \cdots = \alpha,$
$\frac{1}{2^4} + \frac{1}{4^4} + \frac{1}{6^4} + \cdots = \beta.$
Then find $\frac{\alpha}{\beta}$

Concepts Used:
Series
A collection of numbers that is presented as the sum of the numbers in a stated order is called a series. As an outcome, every two numbers in a series are separated by the addition (+) sign. The order of the elements in the series really doesn't matters. If a series demonstrates a finite sequence, it is said to be finite, and if it demonstrates an endless sequence, it is said to be infinite.
