OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok wait for a minute

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Thank you!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i think the question is wrong . below the summation sign k-1 may be wrong pls check once again

OpenStudy (anonymous):

it is k=1 on the bottom

OpenStudy (anonymous):

3(1/n)+3(2/n)+3(3/n)............+3(n-1/n)+3(n/n)

My homework online is saying this isn't the correct answer. But, I can't see another way to write it.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

well then i give up u can see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Summation

OpenStudy (sirm3d):

\[\large \sum_{k=1}^{n} 3\left( \frac{ k }{ n } \right)=\frac{ 3 }{ n }\sum_{k=1}^{n}k =\frac{ 3 }{ n }\left( \frac{ n(n+1) }{ 2 } \right)=\frac{ 3 }{ 2 }\left( n+1 \right)\]
