Find the sum to infinity of the series 1/2 , 1/6, 1/18, …..

Explanation

\(a=\frac{1}{2}\\r=\frac{\frac{1}{6}}{\frac{1}{2}}=\frac{1}{6}\times\frac{2}{1}=\frac{1}{3}\\S_\infty = \frac{a}{1-r}\\S_\infty = \frac{\frac{1}{2}}{1-\frac{1}{3}}\\=\frac{\frac{1}{2}}{\frac{3}{2}}\\=\frac{1}{2}\times\frac{3}{2}\\=\frac{3}{4}\)
