(1 - 1/2) (1 - 1/3) (1 -1/4) (1 -1/5) ... (1 - 1/m) = ?
-
- 1/m
- m
- m + 1
- 1/(m - 1)
Correct Option: A
Given expression
= (1 - 1/2) x (1 - 1/3) x (1 - 1/4) x (1 - 1/5) ...(1 - 1/m - 1) x (1 - 1/m)
= ((2 - 1)/2) x ((3 - 1)/3) ((4 - 1)/4) ((5 - 1)/5) ...((m-1 - 1)/m - 1) x ((m - 1)/m)
= (1/2) x (2/3) x (3/4) x (4/5) x ... x (m -2)/(m-1) x ((m - 1)/m
use the multiplication rule of Algebra,
= 1 x 1/m
= 1/m
