To prove the statement \( P(n) : 1 + \frac{1}{1 + 2} + \frac{1}{1 + 2 + 3} + \ldots + \frac{1}{1 + 2 + 3 + \ldots + n} = \frac{2n}{n + 1} \) for all \( n \in \mathbb{N} \) using the principle of mathematical induction, we will follow these steps: ### Step 1: Base Case We need to check if the statement holds for \( n = 1 \). **Left Hand Side (LHS)**: \[ P(1) = 1 ...
