What is the sum of an infinite geometric series if the first term is 156 and the common ratio is 2⁄3?

Zanzabum

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have

$a_1=156,\ r=\dfrac{2}{3}$

If |r| < 1, then the formula of a sum of an infinite geometric sequence is:

$S=\dfrac{a_1}{1-r}$

Substitute:

$S=\dfrac{156}{1-\frac{2}{3}}=\dfrac{156}{\frac{1}{3}}=156\cdot\dfrac{3}{1}=468$

Susan is buying supplies for a party. If spoons only come in bags of 8 and forks only come in bags of 6, what is the least numbe

You can buy 6 bags of forks and 8 bags of spoons. All you simply have to do is find the common multiple of the two. You can just multiply them both if you can’t find any others or it’s easier
