if i correctly understand the problem.........
s = 1/101 + .......+ 1/150
lowest s = 50/101 =1/2
highest s = 50/150 = 1/3
so the range = 1/2 to 1/3

yes, if there's no answer choices...this problem will be very difficult and may involve the tools of upper and lower limits ...and we know, to find limits is not easy at all.
