Given a series, the ratio test implies finding the following limit:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\rvert=r$

If r<1 then the series converges, if r>1 the series diverges and if r=1 the test is inconclusive and we can't assure if the series converges or diverges. So let's see the terms in this limit:

$\begin{gathered} a_n=\frac{2^n}{n5^{n+1}} \\ a_{n+1}=\frac{2^{n+1}}{(n+1)5^{n+2}} \end{gathered}$

Then the limit is:

$\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_n}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{n5^{n+1}}{2^n}\cdot\frac{2^{n+1}}{\mleft(n+1\mright)5^{n+2}}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^{n+1}}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^{n+1}}{5^{n+2}}\rvert$

We can simplify the expressions inside the absolute value:

$\begin{gathered} \lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^{n+1}}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^{n+1}}{5^{n+2}}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^n\cdot2}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^n\cdot5}{5^n\cdot5\cdot5}\rvert \\ \lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2^n\cdot2}{2^n}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{5^n\cdot5}{5^n\cdot5\cdot5}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert2\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{1}{5}\rvert \\ \lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert2\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\cdot\frac{1}{5}\rvert=\lim _{n\to\infty}\lvert\frac{2}{5}\cdot\frac{n}{n+1}\rvert \end{gathered}$

Since none of the terms inside the absolute value can be negative we can write this with out it:
