\[\color{green} {\text{{Born in 1992 ????}}}\]

OpenStudy (aravindg):

nah I was born is 15 BC

OpenStudy (anonymous):

lol okay i got a math contest question published in 1992

OpenStudy (aravindg):

Then post it !

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[\text{Find the largest integer,\not exceeding}\huge \prod_{n=1}^{1992}\frac{ 3n+2 }{ 3n+1 }\]

OpenStudy (aravindg):

On my first attempt it seems there is a pattern that is followed involving a sequence of cancellation .Let me see if its right

OpenStudy (aravindg):

my bad ..The pattern didnt help

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so we have \[\frac{ 5 }{ 4 }\frac{ 8 }{ 7 }\frac{ 11 }{ 10 }...\frac{ 3(1992) +2}{3(1992)+1 }\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i wonder if this cud help\[\huge \frac{ a_1+a_2+a_3...+a_n }{ n }\le \sqrt[n]{a_1a_2a_3...a_n}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I think this may help you more , \[(3n+2)/(3n+1) = 1+ 1/(3n+1)\] That would be giving you a sequence directly...

OpenStudy (experimentx):

Using Euler-Maclaurin formula you find that \[ \huge e^{\int_1^{1992} (\log(3x+2) - \log(3x+1))dx + \log(5/4)} = 13\] The answer is 12 though.

OpenStudy (experimentx):

\[ \huge \lfloor e^{\int_1^{1992} (\log(3x+2) - \log(3x+1))dx + \log(5/4)}\rfloor = 13\]
