<s>[INST] What is $\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{1}{n+1}\sum_{k=1}^n \frac{k}{1 + \sqrt{2} +\sqrt{3} +\cdots+\sqrt{k+1}}$? I am stuck on this one; Its a sum and don't know how to calculate the denominator.
$$\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{1}{n+1}\sum_{k=1}^n \frac{k}{1 + \sqrt{2} +\sqrt{3} +\cdots+\sqrt{k+1}}$$
 [/INST] It should be possible to work out the following carefully, but at any rate, using comparisons with integrals, you should be easily able to see that the limit is zero. I could do it in my head.
We are considering
$$\lim_{n\to\infty} \frac{1}{n+1}\sum_{k=1}^n \frac{k}{1 + \sqrt{2} +\sqrt{3} +\cdots+\sqrt{k+1}}.$$
First, note that 
$$\sqrt{1}+\sqrt{2}+\cdots+\sqrt{k} \approx \int_1^k s^{1/2} ds \approx \frac{2}{3} k^{3/2}.$$
Next, we then have approximately 
$$\frac{2}{3} \cdot \frac{1}{n+1} \sum_{k=1}^n \frac{k}{k^{3/2}} \approx \frac{2}{3n}  \int_1^n \frac{1}{k^{1/2}} dk \approx \frac{4}{3n} n^{1/2}.$$
Clearly this goes to zero as $n \to \infty$.
