Answer

$\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} a_n=0$ and {$a_n$} is convergent.

Work Step by Step

Consider $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} a_n= \lim\limits_{n \to \infty} \dfrac{n+3}{n^2+5n+6}$ $= \lim\limits_{n \to \infty} \dfrac{n+3}{(n+3)(n+2)}$ Thus, $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} \dfrac{1}{n+2}=0$ Thus, $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty} a_n=0$ and {$a_n$} is convergent.
