I have a question regarding a proof by induction.
We have to see whether or not the following series converges.
$$U_n = \frac{1 \cdot 4 \cdot 7 \cdots (3n - 2)}{2 \cdot 5 \cdot 8 \cdots (3n-1)}$$
I was trying to do this by proving that this series has a lower limit of $0$ and is decreasing. It's easy enough to see that it has a lower limit of $0$ but proving (by induction) that this series is decreasing has proven to be difficult. I understand that I need to prove that $u_n > u_{n+1}$ but I have no idea how to go about doing this.
