Evaluate the partial sum $\sum_{n=1}^k \frac{1}{n(n+1)(n+2)}$ Evaluate the partial sum  $$\sum_{n=1}^k \frac{1}{n(n+1)(n+2)}$$
What I have tried:
Calculate the partial fractions which are (for sake of brevity) :
$$\frac{1}{2n}-\frac{1}{n+1}+\frac{1}{n(n+2)}$$
So we get:
$$\sum_{n=1}^k \frac{1}{n(n+1)(n+2)} = \sum_{n=1}^k \left(\frac{1}{2n}-\frac{1}{n+1}+\frac{1}{n(n+2)}\right)$$
Then calculating a few numbers for $n$ we get:
$$\left(\frac{1}{2}-\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{6} \right) + \left(\frac{1}{4} - \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{8} \right) + \left(\frac{1}{6} - \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{10}\right) . . . \left(\frac{1}{2n} - \frac{1}{n+1} + \frac{1}{n+2}\right)$$
The first two fractions cancel out in the first bracket and we're left with $\frac{1}{6}$, as for the second bracket the first fraction is cancelled out by the second fraction in the third bracket.
I have noticed that the first fractrion so $\frac{1}{2n}$ cancel out by every even term in the denominator for $-\frac{1}{n+1}$ so the equation becomes:
$$\left(-\frac{1}{2n+1}+\frac{1}{n+2}\right) = \left(\frac{n-1}{(2n+1)(n+2)} \right)$$
Have I approached this correctly? I would greatly appreciate some assistance on any improvements!

Calling $S_n = \sum_k^n \frac{1}{k}$ we have
$$
T_n = \frac 12 S_n - \left(S_n-1+\frac{1}{n+1}\right)+\frac 12\left(S_n-1-\frac 12+\frac{1}{n+1}+\frac{1}{n+2}\right)= \frac 14+\frac 12\left(\frac{1}{n+2}-\frac{1}{n+1}\right)
$$
