  • A
    $3$
  • B
    $4$
  • $7/2$

(c) Given series
= $2 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{{{2^2}}} + \frac{1}{{{3^2}}} + \frac{1}{{{2^3}}} + \frac{1}{{{3^3}}} + .......\infty $

$ = \left( {1 + \frac{1}{2} + \frac{1}{{{2^2}}} + \frac{1}{{{2^3}}} + ......\infty } \right)$
+ $\left( {1 + \frac{1}{3} + \frac{1}{{{3^2}}} + \frac{1}{{{3^3}}} + ......\infty } \right)$

$ = \left( {\frac{1}{{1 - (1/2)}}} \right) + \left( {\frac{1}{{1 - (1/3)}}} \right) = 2 + \frac{3}{2} = \frac{7}{2}$.
