Homework Statement
Determine whether the series is convergent or divergent. If it is convergent, find its sum.
[tex]\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} (\frac{1}{e^n}+\frac{1}{n(n+1)})[/tex]

The Attempt at a Solution
So I found it's convergent:
[tex]\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} ((\frac{1}{e})^{n}+\frac{1}{(n^{2}+n)})=\sum\limits_{n=1}^{\infty} ((\frac{1}{e})^{n}+\frac{1}{n}-\frac{1}{n+1})[/tex]
[tex]\lim_{n \to \infty}((\frac{1}{e})^{n}+\frac{1}{n}-\frac{1}{n+1})=0+0+0[/tex]
∴ the sum is convergent.
Now how would I find the sum of the series?
