Question

Can anyone help me start this problem from beginning to end, along with explanations on how to go about the problem for a better understanding how to do this series problem?

1) Find the values of p for which the series is convergent.

Summation notation symbol (with n=1 on bottom and infinity on top) of ln(n)/n^p

(Below, I try wording it in a mathematical sense, hoping it would format correctly here on the site).

∞
∑ ln(n) / (n^p)
n=1
