    \[\frac{{{C}_{0}}}{1}+\frac{{{C}_{1}}}{2}+\frac{{{C}_{2}}}{3}+....+\frac{{{C}_{n}}}{n+1}=\] [RPET 1996]

    A) \[\frac{{{2}^{n}}}{n+1}\]

    B) \[\frac{{{2}^{n}}-1}{n+1}\]

    C) \[\frac{{{2}^{n+1}}-1}{n+1}\]

    D) None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Proceeding as above and putting n+1=N. So given term can be written as         \[\frac{1}{N}\left\{ {{\,}^{N}}{{C}_{1}}+{{\,}^{N}}{{C}_{2}}+{{\,}^{N}}{{C}_{3}}+.... \right\}\] = \[\frac{1}{N}\left\{ {{2}^{N}}-1 \right\}=\frac{1}{n+1}({{2}^{n+1}}-1)\] \[(\because N=n+1)\]
