sum from n=1 to infinity of 3/(10^n)

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{3}{1 0 ^{n}}

\frac{1}{3}

Solution steps

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{3}{1 0 ^{n}}

Apply the constant multiplication rule:

\sum c \cdot a_{n} = c \cdot \sum a_{n}

= 3 \cdot n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{1}{1 0 ^{n}}

n = k \sum \infty (a_{n}) = n = 0 \sum \infty (a_{n}) - a_{0} - a_{1} - \dots a_{k - 1}

= 3 (n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{1}{1 0 ^{n}} - \frac{1}{1 0 ^{0}})

n = 0 \sum \infty \frac{1}{1 0 ^{n}} = \frac{10}{9}

= 3 (\frac{10}{9} - \frac{1}{1 0 ^{0}})

Simplify

3 (\frac{10}{9} - \frac{1}{1 0 ^{0}}) : \frac{1}{3}

= \frac{1}{3}

n = 1 \sum \infty 3 (\frac{9}{7})^{n - 1}

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{cos ( πn )}{n}

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{1}{7 n}

n = 1 \sum \infty (\frac{5}{4})^{n - 1}

n = 1 \sum \infty \frac{1}{4 ^{n} - 1}
