  • Answer

For 1≤j≤20141 \leq j \leq 2014, define

bj=j2014∏i=1,i≠j2014(i2014−j2014)b_{j}=j^{2014} \prod_{i=1, i \neq j}^{2014}\left(i^{2014}-j^{2014}\right)

where the product is over all i∈{1,…,2014}i \in\{1, \ldots, 2014\} except i=ji=j. Evaluate

1b1+1b2+⋯+1b2014\frac{1}{b_{1}}+\frac{1}{b_{2}}+\cdots+\frac{1}{b_{2014}}
