Step-by-step explanation:

6 1/3 = 19/3.

2 1/8 = 17/8.

Therefore 6 1/3 divided by 2 1/8

= (19/3) / (17/8)

= (19/3) * (8/17)

= 152/51, which is roughly 3.

S_n=\sum\limits_{i=1}^{n}\ a_1\cdot r^{i-1}\implies S_n=a_1\left( \cfrac{1-r^n}{1-r} \right)\quad

n=n^{th}\ term\\

\\\\\\
\sum\limits_{n=1}^{8}~-2(3)^{n-1}~~
\begin{cases}
n=8\\
a_1=-2\\
r=3
\end{cases}\implies S_8=-2\left( \cfrac{1-3^8}{1-3} \right)
\\\\\\
S_8=\underline{-2}\left( \cfrac{1-6561}{\underline{-2}} \right)\implies s_8=1-6561\implies S_8=-6560$
