Hi Basit,

 

Use the property [x] = x - {x}

 

You will get

a+2a+3a+......na - ({a}+{2a}+.....{na})

ie a*n*(n+1)/2 - ({a}+{2a}+...{na})

as limit n tends to infinity, first term will tend to a/2, and then term in the brackets will tend to n (which is divided by n^2) and hence will tend to 0.

 

So answer is a/2.
