Answer

$R=1$ ; interval of convergence is $[-1,1]$

Work Step by Step

Let $a_{n}=\frac{x^{2n}}{n(lnn)^{2}}$, then $\lim\limits_{n \to \infty}|\frac{a_{n+1}}{a_{n}}|=\lim\limits_{n \to \infty}|\dfrac{\frac{x^{2(n+1)}}{(n+1)(ln(n+1))^{2}}}{\frac{x^{2n}}{n(lnn)^{2}}}|$ $=x^{2}\lt 1$ Thus, $-1\lt x\lt 1$ Hence, $R=1$ ; interval of convergence is $[-1,1]$
