    The sum of the series\[\frac{1}{1.2}+\frac{1.3}{1.2.3.4}+\frac{1.3.5}{1.2.3.4.5.6}+.....\infty \] is [Kurukshetra CEE 2002]

    A) \[15e\]

    B) \[{{e}^{1/2}}+e\]

    C) \[{{e}^{1/2}}-1\]

    D) \[{{e}^{1/2}}-e\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    The nth term of given series is \[{{T}_{n}}=\frac{1.3.5.7.....(2n-1)}{1.2.3.4.........(2n)}\] \[{{T}_{n}}=\frac{1.2.3.4.....(2n-2)(2n-1)(2n)}{1.2.3.4...(2n-1)(2n)}\]\[\times \frac{1}{2.4.6...(2n-2)(2n)}\]     \[{{T}_{n}}\]\[=\frac{1}{({{2}^{n}}n!)}\],\[\therefore \,\,S=\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty }{\frac{{{\left( \frac{1}{2} \right)}^{n}}}{n!}={{e}^{\frac{1}{2}}}-1.}\]
