Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{220}{3}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Let \[ S=\frac{1^{2}}{1 \cdot 2}+\frac{1^{2}+2^{2}}{2 \cdot 3}+\frac{1^{2}+2^{2}+3^{2}}{3 \cdot 4}+\ldots . \] upto 20 terms Let \(t_{n}\) be \(n\)th terms of series. Then, \(t_{n}=\frac{1^{2}+2^{2}+3^{2}+\ldots+n^{2}}{n \cdot(n+1)}\)…
