Determine whether or not the following series converge.
I am not sure what test to use. I am pretty sure I am unable to use ratio test. Maybe comparison or Kummer, or Raabe. However I am not sure how to start it.

By Root test, $$limsup_n to infty sqrt[n]left(fracnn+1right)^n^2=limsup_n to infty left(fracnn+1right)^n=limsup_n to infty left(1+frac1nright)^-n=frac1e<1$$



So your series converges!
