n = 1 = 7 ( 1 4 + ( 1 4 ) 2 + ( 1 4 ) 3 + . . . + ( 1 4 ) N + . . . )
= 7 4 ( 1 + ( 1 4 ) 2 + ( 1 4 ) 3 + . . . . ) this is a geometric series
r = 1 4 < 1
and
1 + r 2 + r 3 + r 4 + . . . . . . . . . . . + r n 1 = lim n 1 r n 1 r = 1 1 r   i f   | r | < 1
lim n 7 4 ( 1 ( 1 4 ) n 1 1 4 ) = lim n 7 4 1 3 4 = 7.4 4.3 = 7 3
