Question

Q = \(\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{7}{8}+\dfrac{15}{16}+\dfrac{31}{32}+\dfrac{63}{64}+\dfrac{127}{128}-6\)

Answer 1

Q=\(\dfrac{1}{2}+\left(\dfrac{3}{4}+\dfrac{7}{8}\right)+\left(\dfrac{15}{16}+\dfrac{31}{32}\right)+\left(\dfrac{63}{64}+\dfrac{127}{128}\right)-6\)

Q=\(\dfrac{1}{2}+\dfrac{13}{8}+\dfrac{61}{32}+\dfrac{253}{128}\)\(-6\)

Q= \(\dfrac{64}{128}+\dfrac{208}{128}+\dfrac{244}{128}+\dfrac{253}{128}-6\)

Q= \(\dfrac{769}{128}-6\)

Q=\(\dfrac{769}{128}-\dfrac{768}{128}\)

Q= \(\dfrac{1}{128}\)
