Homework Statement


Prove that the series:
1/[n log(n)]^1.1 converges

Homework Equations




The Attempt at a Solution




We know that nlogn is equal to d[log(log(n))] and use the integral test to show that it diverges.
However, I have no idea how to deal with the 1.1th power.

n > 10

log(n) >1

Thus,

1/[(nlog(n))^(1.1)] < 1/ (n^1.1)
