The series is
.
Divergence test:
\ For the series
, If
, then the series
is divergent and \ \
If
, then the series
is convergent.
Here
.
Find out the first few terms.
\If
then
.
If
then
.
If
then
.
Observe the terms:
\ The common ratio is
.
.
Since the series is geometric and
, the series converges.
Therefore the sum of the series is calculated by using the formula
.
.
Therefore the series is convergent and sum of the series is
.
The series is convergent and sum of the series is
.
