The correct Answer is:
To find the seventh term of the series given by \( \frac{8}{5} + \frac{16}{65} + \frac{24}{325} + \ldots \), we will first identify the general term of the series. ### Step 1: Identify the pattern in the series The series can be expressed as: - First term: \( \frac{8}{5} \) - Second term: \( \frac{16}{65} \) - Third term: \( \frac{24}{325} \) We can see that the numerators are \( 8, 16, 24, \ldots \) which can be expressed as \( 8n \) for \( n = 1, 2, 3, \ldots \). The denominators are \( 5, 65, 325, \ldots \). We can observe that: - \( 5 = 5 \times 1 \) - \( 65 = 5 \times 13 \) - \( 325 = 5 \times 65 \) It appears that the denominators can be expressed in a pattern related to powers of 5 and some other factor. ### Step 2: General term formulation Let’s denote the \( n \)-th term of the series as \( T_n \). The general term can be expressed as: \[ T_n = \frac{8n}{D_n} \] where \( D_n \) is the denominator for the \( n \)-th term. From the observed pattern, we can assume: \[ D_n = 5 \times (n^2 + n) = 5n(n + 1) \] Thus, the general term becomes: \[ T_n = \frac{8n}{5n(n + 1)} = \frac{8}{5(n + 1)} \] ### Step 3: Calculate the seventh term Now, we need to find the seventh term \( T_7 \): \[ T_7 = \frac{8}{5(7 + 1)} = \frac{8}{5 \times 8} = \frac{8}{40} = \frac{1}{5} \] ### Final Answer The seventh term of the series is: \[ \boxed{\frac{1}{5}} \]

To find the seventh term of the series given by \( \frac{8}{5} + \frac{16}{65} + \frac{24}{325} + \ldots \), we will first identify the general term of the series. ### Step 1: Identify the pattern in the series The series can be expressed as: - First term: \( \frac{8}{5} \) - Second term: \( \frac{16}{65} \) - Third term: \( \frac{24}{325} \) ...
