I am trying to find the partial sum of the series defined by:
$$frac91.2.3+frac92.3.4+frac93.4.5+....+frac9n(n+1)(n+2)+...$$
I know the answer is $$frac9n(n+3)4(n+1)(n+2)$$t
I tried the telescopic series but didn't work.
Any suggestions?

Induction is always a possibility (not particularly neat one but will get you there)

Use partial fractions to get
$$a_n=frac92 left (frac1r-frac1r+1 right )-frac92 left (frac1r+1-frac1r+2 right )$$
Now use telescoping.
