makes it 20% easier.

it allows you to use the formula for summing a geometric series
\[\sum_{k=1}^{\infty}r^{k-1}=\frac{1}{1-r}\]

Alright. I wish i could give all of you a medal, this has made my day.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
in your case \(r=\frac{3}{4}\)
OpenStudy (anonymous):
with some practice you can do it in your head
one minus three fourths is one fourth
the reciprocal of one fourth is 4
at the end multiply \(4\times \frac{3}{8}\) because of that pesky \(\frac{3}{8}\) out front
