It will converge if the common factor  r  is between 0 and 1.
For example:-
 A GS with  first term a1 = 2  and d = 1/2,   the  terms are:-

2 , 1 , 1/2, 1/4, 1/8,1/16 and so on

Each term gets smaller and smaller and they will become very small - close to 0.   The sum will converge to a certain value also.
In this case it will converge to  2 /( 1 - 1/2) = 4

If d > 1  the terms will increase without bounds and the sum gets bigger and bigger . The series  diverges.

for example  2, 8, 32, 128, 512 ....  where a1 = 2 and d = 4.

If you need 4 tables spoons of golden syrup to make 10 cupcakes, how many tables spoons of golden syrup will you need to make 4
Nikitich [7]

Answer:

1.6 tablespoons

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s make a proportion

syrup/cupcakes=syrup/cupcakes

4 tablespoons are needed for 10 cupcakes and x tablespoons are needed for 4 cupcakes.

4/10=x/4

Now we have to solve for x. x is being divided by 4. To reverse this, multiply both sides by 4, because multiplication is the opposite of division.

4*4/10=x/4*4

The 4s on the right will cancel, so we are left with:

4/4*10=x

1.6=x

So, 1.6 tablespoons are needed for 4 cupcakes.
