Series | Limit Comparison Test: Example 1

The video tutorial explains the limit comparison test, a method to determine the convergence or divergence of a series by comparing it to a simpler series. The process involves defining a sub n and b sub n, calculating the limit of their quotient, and applying L'Hospital's rule to resolve indeterminate forms. The tutorial concludes by comparing the limit comparison test with the direct comparison test, highlighting their similarities and differences.
