Answer 6

And if you wanna write it inline, then use \limits.\(\sum \limits_{a = 1}^{\infty}a\)

Answer 7

@hartnn The correct code for inline is given below:
```
\(\sum \limits_{a}^{b}\)
```

Answer 8

you can also use \displaystyle in from of it so \displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^n gives
\[\displaystyle\sum_{i+1}^n\]
It also works for \lim, \prod etc.

Answer 9

\[\displaystyle \lim_{h\to 0} \]
\displaystyle\lim_{h\to 0}
