1. ## converge or diverge?

infinity
summation of ln(n)/n
n=2

I need to know if it converges or diverges and explain why. If someone could go though this step by step it would be a big help.

use the integral test

3. the integral test confuses me.. thats why i requested a step by step help

$\int_2^{\infty} \frac{\ln{x}}{x} \, dx$

substitution ... let $u = \ln{x}$

give it a go.

give it a go.

after i integrate i get [ln(x)]^2 / 2

$\frac{ln(n)}{n}\geq\frac{1}{n}$ for $n\geq e$
