S= 1/2
Explanation:
Formula for sum of infinite geometric series is
S_=a_1/(1-r) ; " " " " " -1 < r < 1
We have a geometric series :1/3 + 1/9 + 1/81+.........
First we know a_1= 1/3 (the first term)
Second: Identify r, we know r= a_2/a_1 or r= a_n/a_(n-1
r= (1/(9))/(1/3) hArr 1/9 *3/1 = 1/3
r= 1/3
Substitute into the formula
Soo= (1/3)/(1-1/3)
= (1/3) /(2/3)
=(1/3)*(3/2)
Soo= 1/2
