begin mathsize 16px style straight S subscript straight m equals straight m over 2 open square brackets 2 straight a plus left parenthesis straight m minus 1 right parenthesis straight d close square brackets
straight S subscript straight n apostrophe equals fraction numerator straight m plus straight n over denominator 2 end fraction open square brackets 2 straight a plus open parentheses straight m plus straight n minus 1 close parentheses straight d close square brackets minus straight m over 2 open square brackets 2 straight a plus left parenthesis straight m minus 1 right parenthesis straight d close square brackets
straight S subscript straight p apostrophe equals fraction numerator straight m plus straight p over denominator 2 end fraction open square brackets 2 straight a plus open parentheses straight m plus straight p minus 1 close parentheses straight d close square brackets minus straight m over 2 open square brackets 2 straight a plus left parenthesis straight m minus 1 right parenthesis straight d close square brackets
According space to space the space question comma
straight m over 2 open square brackets 2 straight a plus left parenthesis straight m minus 1 right parenthesis straight d close square brackets equals fraction numerator straight m plus straight n over denominator 2 end fraction open square brackets 2 straight a plus open parentheses straight m plus straight n minus 1 close parentheses straight d close square brackets minus straight m over 2 open square brackets 2 straight a plus left parenthesis straight m minus 1 right parenthesis straight d close square brackets
Simplifying space we space get
fraction numerator straight m minus straight n over denominator straight m plus straight n end fraction equals fraction numerator nd over denominator 2 straight a plus left parenthesis straight m minus 1 right parenthesis straight d end fraction.... left parenthesis straight i right parenthesis
fraction numerator straight m minus straight p over denominator straight m plus straight p end fraction equals fraction numerator pd over denominator 2 straight a plus left parenthesis straight m minus 1 right parenthesis straight d end fraction... left parenthesis ii right parenthesis
Dividing space left parenthesis ii right parenthesis space by space left parenthesis straight i right parenthesis
and space simplifying space we space get space the space required space result. end style
