Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Sum of the first n terms of a geometric series is:
S = a₁ (1 - r^n) / (1 - r)
Here, a₁ = 0.2, r = 6, and n = 5.
S = 0.2 (1 - 6^5) / (1 - 6)
S = 311
Answer:
Option A
Step-by-step explanation:
For the given geometric series
a₁ = 0.2
a₅ = 259.2
r = 6
Then we have to find the sum of initial 5 terms of this series
[tex]S_{n} =\frac{a_1(r^4-1)}{(r-1)}=\frac{0.2(6^3-1)}{(6-1)}[/tex]
[tex]=\frac{0.2(7776-1)}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{0.2\times 7775}{5}[/tex]
= 311
Option A is the answer.
