For which of the following series will every possible rearrangement of its terms converge to the same sum as the original series? (a) ∑n=1∞(−1)n+1n2/3\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\dfrac{(-1)^{n+1}}{n^{2/3}} (b) ∑n=1∞(−1)n+1n3\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\dfrac{(-1)^{n+1}}{n^{3}} (c) ∑n=1∞(−1)n+1n\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\dfrac{(-1)^{n+1}}{n} (d) ∑n=1∞(−1)n+1nn+1\displaystyle\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}(-1)^{n+1}\dfrac{n}{n+1}
