Detailed Solution

$\frac{a_{1}}{a_{1} + a_{2}} + \frac{a_{3}}{a_{3} + a_{4}} = \frac{^{n} C_{1}}{^{(n + 1)} C_{2}} + \frac{^{n} C_{3}}{^{(n + 1)} C_{4}}$

$\frac{n! \times 2}{(n + 1) n!} + \frac{n (n - 1) (n - 2)}{3!} \times \frac{4 \times 3!}{(n + 1) n (n - 1) (n - 2)}$

$= \frac{2}{n + 1} + \frac{4}{n + 1}$

$= \frac{6}{n + 1}$

$= 2. \frac{a_{2}}{a_{2} + a_{3}}$
