By mathematical induction,

\frac{1}{1 \cdot 2 \cdot 3}+\frac{1}{2 \cdot 3 \cdot 4}+\ldots .+\frac{1}{n(n+1)(n+2)}

is equal to

View answer and explanation

Correct option: B

\frac{n(n+3)}{4(n+1)(n+2)}

Option B (

\frac{{n(n+3)}}{{4(n+1)(n+2)}}

) is correct because the sum can be proven using mathematical induction.
