Question

Which is the sum of the first 6 terms of the geometric series?
7+21 +63

Answer 1

2,548

Explanation:

First, we have to find out the rule. The rule is multiply the previous number by 3 to get the next number.

7x3=21

21x3=63

So, we would continue this pattern until we have the first 6 numbers which are 189, 567, and 1701.

The questions is asking for the SUM of the 6 numbers so you would add the those numbers and do this equation:

7+21+63+189+567+1701= 2548

Hope this helps! :)
