Prove this inequality ( a + b + c ) ( b + c + d ) 3 a b 3 + c d 3
Let a , b , c , d > 0
Idea: Hence, we need to prove that
( a + b + c ) ( b + c + d ) a b + c d + 3 ( a b ) 2 c d 3 + 3 ( c d ) 2 ( a b ) 3
a c + b c + b d + a d + b 2 + c 2 3 ( a b ) 2 c d 3 + 3 ( c d ) 2 ( a b ) 3
I attempted a following proof by AM-GM inequality,But I am not able to solve the upper part, this inequality

It's just Holder:
( a + b + c ) ( b + c + d ) ( b b + c + c b + c )
( a ( b + c ) b b + c 3 + ( b + c ) d c b + c 3 ) 3 = ( a b 3 + c d 3 ) 3
