Geometric series

easy2019FIA Assistant Director Paper 2019 Batch 1
MathematicsFIA

The infinite sum 2 + \frac{2}{5} + \frac{2}{25} + \frac{2}{125} + \cdots is:

A
5/3
B
5/2
C
5/4
D
None of these
Explanation and memory cue

The series is a geometric series with first term a = 2 and common ratio r = 1/5. The sum to infinity is a / (1 - r) = 2 / (1 - 1/5) = 2 / (4/5) = 2 * 5/4 = 5/2. However, the terms given are 2 + 2/5 + 2/25 + 2/125 + ..., which matches the ratio 1/5. The sum is 2 / (1 - 1/5) = 2 / (4/5) = 2 * 5/4 = 5/2. Therefore, the correct answer is 5/2, which corresponds to option B. The original correct_answer was B, which is correct. The explanation was missing and has been added. The difficulty is set to easy as this is a basic geometric series sum problem.
