Question 1210345
.


To avoid misunderstanding, here is my correction to the post by Edwin, 
where he placed his solution for Geometric progression.



His last formula in his post should be


{{{S[10]}}} = {{{6*((3^10-1)/(3-1))}}} = {{{6*(59048/2)}}} = 6*29524 = 177144.

As  I  see from the  Edwin's post  (as  @AnlytcPhil),  Edwin did not get the meaning of my correction.


The meaning is not in placing parentheses.


The meaning is that  I  changed  ' 10-1 '  in the denominator by  ' 3-1 ',
and then changed  ' 9 '  in the denominator by  ' 2 '  to make the numbers consistent.
