The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the summation: \[ \sum_{r=0}^{n-1} \frac{nC_r}{nC_r + nC_{r+1}} \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Expression**: We start with the

the identity: \[ nC_r + nC_{r+1} = n+1C_{r+1} \] Therefore, we can rewrite the summation as: \[ \sum_{r=0}^{n-1} \frac{nC_r}{n+1C_{r+1}} \] 3. **Simplifying the Expression**: The expression simplifies to: \[ \sum_{r=0}^{n-1} \frac{nC_r}{\frac{(n+1)!}{(r+1)!(n-r)!}} \] which can be simplified further. 4. **Taking Out Common Factors**: We can factor out \( \frac{1}{n+1} \) from the summation: \[ \frac{1}{n+1} \sum_{r=0}^{n-1} (r+1) nC_r \] 5. **Evaluating the Summation**: The summation \( \sum_{r=0}^{n-1} (r+1) nC_r \) can be computed using the formula for the sum of the first \( n \) natural numbers: \[ = n \cdot \frac{n(n+1)}{2} \] 6. **Final Calculation**: Putting everything together, we find: \[ \sum_{r=0}^{n-1} \frac{nC_r}{nC_r + nC_{r+1}} = \frac{1}{n+1} \cdot \frac{n(n+1)}{2} = \frac{n}{2} \] ### Final Answer: The value of the summation is: \[ \frac{n}{2} \]

To solve the problem, we need to evaluate the summation: \[ \sum_{r=0}^{n-1} \frac{nC_r}{nC_r + nC_{r+1}} \] ### Step-by-Step Solution: ...
