TITLE: limit $\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1}{\sqrt n}\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2+\sqrt4}+\frac{1}{\sqrt4+\sqrt6}+\cdots+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2n}+\sqrt{2n+2}}\right)$
QUESTION [6 upvotes]: $$\lim_{n\to\infty}\frac{1}{\sqrt n}\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt 2+\sqrt4}+\frac{1}{\sqrt4+\sqrt6}+\cdots+\frac{1}{\sqrt{2n} +\sqrt{2n+2}}\right)$$

To find the limit I think I can use the sandwich theorem: if $f,g$ and $h$ are real functions such that $f(x)\le g(x) \le h(x)$ for all $x$ and if $\lim_{x\to 0} f(x)=L= \lim_{x\to 0} h(x)$, then $\lim_{x\to 0} g(x)= L$.
I don't know that which series I can take for $f(x)$ and $h(x)$ to compare with $g(x)$.
