Aratati ca 1/2 mai mic decat 1/20+1/21+1/22+...+1/39
Numarul de termeni = (39 - 20) + 1 = 19 + 1 = 20
Luam un sir mai mic decat sirul dat, dar mai usor de calculat.
1 / 39 < 1 / 20
1 / 39 < 1 / 21
..................
1 / 39 < 1 / 38
=> (1/39 + 1/39 + 1/39 + ......(20 termeni).......+ 1/39) < (1/20+1/21+1/22+.....+1/39)
=> 20 * 1/39 < (1/20+1/21+1/22+.....+1/39)
=> 20/39 < (1/20+1/21+1/22+.....+1/39)
20 / 40 < 20 /39 < (1/20+1/21+1/22+.....+1/39)
20 / 40 = 1 / 2
=> 1 / 2 = 20 / 40 < 20 /39 < (1/20+1/21+1/22+.....+1/39)
=> 1/2 < (1/20+1/21+1/22+.....+1/39)
