Adding 3 to both sides we get:


(a+b +c) (1/b+c  +  1/c+a  + 1/a+b) >= 9/2


or


2(a+b +c) (1/b+c  +  1/c+a  + 1/a+b) >= 9


or


((b+c) + (c+a) + (a+b)) (1/b+c  +  1/c+a  + 1/a+b) > =9


which is true by AM >=HM


Hence proved , no use of a+b+c =1 and no hardcore inequalities this is the best way to prove the Nesbitt's inequality.


 


Let us learn to dream, gentlemen, and then perhaps we shall learn the truth.

LHS can be written as (a/1-a)+(b/1-b)+c/1-c


value of expression is min when each term is min


take LCM


We find that the expression formed when a=b=c


substitute and hope to get the ans
