From memory there was a limit question in the 2U paper that also asked about a telescoping sum. If I remember it looked something similar to this..


One of my questions on the Challenge Marathon thread for MX2 also features a telescoping product. May be of interest to you.

Hi RuiAce, could you confirm if the answer to the 2u question you posted just required rationalising the fraction and then cancelling adjacent terms?

Yes.

The ability to cancel out adjacent terms is what gives the name "telescoping sum".
