Question
Limit Comparison Test (a). Suppose that Eak and Ebk are series with positive
terms. If
lim
= c,
0 <c<∞,
k→∞ bk
then either both series converge or both diverge.
In other words, E=1 bk converges if and only if E=1 ak converges. Using this inter-
pretation, give an alternative proof via Cauchy sequences.
