The sum to infinity of the series 1+23+632+10333+1434+…..is
Let S be the sum of the given series i.e.,
S=1+23+632+1033+1434+….to∞⇒ (S−1)=23+632+1033+1434+…to∞----i⇒ (S−1)×13=232+633+1034+…to∞-----ii
Subtracting (ii) from (i), we get
23(S−1)=23+432+433+434+…to ∞
⇒ 23(S−1)=23+4321−13⇒23(S−1)=23+23⇒S=3
