1. ## Subsequences

How many convergent subsequences, and how many limits of these subsequences are there in the following sequence:

An infinite amount...

1/2 + 1/3 + 1/4 + 1/5 ....

1/3 + 1/4 + 1/5 + 1/6 .....

3. ## Thanks(???)

Thank you, could I justify this by writing in the form 1/n+1 and getting the sum to infinity??(Or something like that)

Yes, with different starting points.

Reason: Let $\alpha\in[0,1]$. For the n-th term of the subsequence, choose the term with denominator n and numerator k such that k/n comes closest to α. Then $|\textstyle\frac kn-\alpha|<1/n.$ Hence the subsequence converges to α.
