for positive numbers:  Arithmetic mean ≥ Harmonic mean  AM=((a_1 +a_2 +...+a_n )/n)=(n/n)=1  HM=(n/((1/a_1 )+(1/a_2 )+(1/a_3 )+...+(1/a_n )))  1≥(n/((1/a_1 )+(1/a_2 )+(1/a_3 )+...+(1/a_n )))  ⇒(1/a_1 )+(1/a_2 )+(1/a_3 )+...+(1/a_n )≥n
$$\mathrm{for}\:\mathrm{positive}\:\mathrm{numbers}: \\ $$$$\mathrm{Arithmetic}\:\mathrm{mean}\:\geqslant\:\mathrm{Harmonic}\:\mathrm{mean} \\ $$$$\mathrm{AM}=\frac{{a}_{\mathrm{1}} +{a}_{\mathrm{2}} +…+{a}_{{n}} }{{n}}=\frac{{n}}{{n}}=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\mathrm{HM}=\frac{{n}}{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{\mathrm{1}} }+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{\mathrm{2}} }+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{\mathrm{3}} }+…+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{{n}} }} \\ $$$$\mathrm{1}\geqslant\frac{{n}}{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{\mathrm{1}} }+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{\mathrm{2}} }+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{\mathrm{3}} }+…+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{{n}} }} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{\mathrm{1}} }+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{\mathrm{2}} }+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{\mathrm{3}} }+…+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{{a}_{{n}} }\geqslant{n} \\ $$

Solution.  for a_1 ,a_2 ,...,a_n >0 and b_1 ,b_2 ,...,b_n >0  by Cauchy−Schwarz in eagle form   (a_1 ^2 /b_1 )+(a_2 ^2 /b_2 )+...+(a_n ^2 /b_n )≥(((a_1 +a_2 +...+a_n )^2 )/(b_1 +b_2 +...+b_n ))  (1^2 /a_1 )+(1^2 /a_2 )+...+(1^2 /a_n )≥(((1+1+...+1)^2 )/(a_1 +a_2 +...+a_n ))=(n^2 /n)=n   because a_1 +a_2 +...+a_n =n
