Find the sum of n terms:  (1/(1.3)) + (1/(3.5)) + ... + (1/((2n − 1)(2n + 1)))  = ?

$$\mathrm{Find}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{sum}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{n}\:\mathrm{terms}:\:\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{1}.\mathrm{3}}\:+\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}.\mathrm{5}}\:+\:...\:+\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\left(\mathrm{2n}\:−\:\mathrm{1}\right)\left(\mathrm{2n}\:+\:\mathrm{1}\right)}\:\:=\:? \\ $$

T_n =(1/((2n+1)(2n−1)))  T_n =(1/2)[(((2n+1)−(2n−1))/((2n+1)(2n−1)))]  T_n =(1/2)[(1/(2n−1))−(1/(2n+1))]  T_1 =(1/2)[(1/1)−(1/3)]  T_2 =(1/2)[(1/3)−(1/5)]  T_3 =(1/2)[(1/5)−(1/7)]  ....  ...  add them  S_n =(1/2)[1−(1/(2n+1))]

$${T}_{{n}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\left(\mathrm{2}{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)\left(\mathrm{2}{n}−\mathrm{1}\right)} \\ $$$${T}_{{n}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\left[\frac{\left(\mathrm{2}{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)−\left(\mathrm{2}{n}−\mathrm{1}\right)}{\left(\mathrm{2}{n}+\mathrm{1}\right)\left(\mathrm{2}{n}−\mathrm{1}\right)}\right] \\ $$$${T}_{{n}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\left[\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}{n}−\mathrm{1}}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}{n}+\mathrm{1}}\right] \\ $$$${T}_{\mathrm{1}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\left[\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{1}}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}\right] \\ $$$${T}_{\mathrm{2}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\left[\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5}}\right] \\ $$$${T}_{\mathrm{3}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\left[\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5}}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{7}}\right] \\ $$$$.... \\ $$$$... \\ $$$${add}\:{them} \\ $$$${S}_{{n}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}}\left[\mathrm{1}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}{n}+\mathrm{1}}\right] \\ $$
