When a teacher gives you such problem, it is assumed that you have a prerequisite and are able
to sum up an infinite geometric progression.

So, split the given sequence into the sum of two infinite geometric progressions.

Prove to yourself and to all around you that you know the necessary prerequisite.

If you don't know prerequisite, it means that you are in wrong class.
