lim n->infinty [1/na + 1/(na+1) + 1/(na+2) + ...... + 1/nb] Plz show the method. Ans is -> log (b/a). This question is from arihant, last workbook exercise of Limits.

Dear Shraddhey

this type of question is solved by hepl of intigration

limn->∞ [1/na + 1/(na+1) + 1/(na+2) + ...... + 1/(na+nb-na)]

limn->∞ 1/(na+r)               r  vary from 0 to (b-a)

limn->∞ 1/nn/(na+r)               r  vary from 0 to (b-a)

limn->∞ 1/n1/(a+r/n)               r  vary from 0 to (b-a)

now if any given series is of this form then replace ∑  by ∫   ,and  r/n   by  x , and  1/n by dx

=ob-a  dx/(a+x) 

=lnb/a
