take 5 out of the series it'll look like 5(1-1/3+1/3^2-1/3^3+......) =(5)*1/(1+1/3)=15/4 so option A using this :: Sum of infinite geometric series, a + ar + ar^2 + ... exists if -1 < r < 1 and its value is = a / (1 - r). here r=-1/3

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So you're telling me that the answer is A?

OpenStudy (sidsiddhartha):

yeah
