PART ( I ) : Sum to infinity of progression P is a / ( 1 - r )
a= 2 r= 1/2
Sum to infinity of P is 2 / ( 1 - 1/2 ) = 4
Sum to infinity of progression Q is a / ( 1 - r )
a=3 r= 1/3
Sum to infinity of Q is 3 / ( 1 - 1/3 ) = 9/2
Arithmetic progression is 4 , 9/2 , 5
Sum to infinity of R is 5
PART ( II ) : Sum to infinity of progression R is a / ( 1 - r )
R = 5 , a =4 and r = ?
5 = 4 / ( 1 - r )
r= 1/5
sum of first 3 terms is a ( 1 - r^n ) / 1 - r
put the corresponding values of a , r and n
sum of first 3 terms is 4.96
