The given geometric series as shown in the question is seen to; Be converging with its' sum as 81

<h3>How to identify a converging or diverging series?</h3>

We are given the geometric series;

27 + 18 + 12 + 8 + ...

Now, we see that;

First term; a₀ = 27

Second Term; a₁ = 2(27/3)

Third term; a₂ = 2²(27/3²)

Fourth term; a₃ = 2³(27/3³)

Thus, the formula is;

2ⁿ(27/3ⁿ)

Applying limits at infinity gives;

2^(∞) * (27/3^(∞)) = 0

Since the  terms of the series tend to zero, we can affirm that the series converges.

The sum of an infinite converging series is:

S_n = a/(1 - r)

S_n = 27/(1 - (2/3)

S_n = 81
