Answer: B

Step-by-step solution

1×22+2×32+…+100×(101)212×2+22×3+…+1002×101=∑r=1100r(r+1)2∑r=1100r2(r+1)\frac{1 \times 2^{2}+2 \times 3^{2}+\ldots+100 \times(101)^{2}}{1^{2} \times 2+2^{2} \times 3+\ldots+100^{2} \times 101}=\frac{\sum_{r=1}^{100} r(r+1)^{2}}{\sum_{r=1}^{100} r^{2}(r+1)}

=∑r=1100(r3+2r2+r)∑r=1100(r3+r2)=(n(n+1)22)+2.n(n+1)(2n+1)6+n(n+1)2(n(n+1)2)2+n(n+1)(2n+1)6=\frac{\sum_{\mathrm{r}=1}^{100}\left(r^{3}+2 r^{2}+r\right)}{\sum_{\mathrm{r}=1}^{100}\left(\mathrm{r}^{3}+r^{2}\right)}=\frac{\left(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)^{2}}{2}\right)+\frac{2 . \mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)(2 \mathrm{n}+1)}{6}+\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)}{2}}{\left(\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)}{2}\right)^{2}+\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)(2 \mathrm{n}+1)}{6}}

=n(n+1)2[n(n+1)2+23⋅(2n+1)+1]n(n+1)2[n(n+1)2+(2n+1)3];=\frac{\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)}{2}\left[\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)}{2}+\frac{2}{3} \cdot(2 \mathrm{n}+1)+1\right]}{\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)}{2}\left[\frac{\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{n}+1)}{2}+\frac{(2 \mathrm{n}+1)}{3}\right]} ; Put n=100\mathrm{n}=100

=100(101)2+23(201)+1100×1012+2013=51855117=305301=\frac{\frac{100(101)}{2}+\frac{2}{3}(201)+1}{\frac{100 \times 101}{2}+\frac{201}{3}}=\frac{5185}{5117}=\frac{305}{301}
