Open in App
Solution

In the given series, 13,12,34,...
The ratio of first two terms is 1213=32
The ratio of third term to the second term is 3412=32
Hence, the terms are in Geometric Progression, with first term a=13 and common ratio r=32
Sum of terms in a GP is a(1rn)(1r)=13(1(32)n)1(32)
Here, n=7Sum=13(1+(32)7)1+32=13×25(37+2727)=463192
