MCQ
If $a=3$ and $r=2$ then find the sum up $5^{th}$ term.
  • A
    $95$
  • B
    $82$
  • $93$
  • D
    $97$

Answer

Correct option: C.
$93$
We know, $\text{s}_\text{n}=a\frac{\text({r^\text{n}-1)}}{\text({r}-1)}$
Here $a = 3, r = 2$ and $n = 5$
$\text{s}_5=3\frac{(2^5-1)}{(2-1)}$
$=3(32-1)$
$=3\times31$
$=93.$
