SUMMARY
The set A defined as A = ∪_{n=1}^{∞} (n/5, n/5 + (n+1)/2^n) is Lebesgue measurable. The discussion centers on proving its measurability and calculating its measure. The conclusion drawn is that A can be expressed as (1/5, ∞), indicating that its measure is infinite. This result is crucial for understanding the properties of Lebesgue measurable sets in measure theory.
