Answer

$\dfrac{4}{3}$

Work Step by Step

The general formula to find the sum of infinite Geometric series is given as: $ S_{n}=\dfrac{a_1}{(1-r)}$ and $ r=\dfrac{a_2}{a_1}=\dfrac{1/4}{1}=\dfrac{1}{4}$ Now, $ S_{n}=\dfrac{a_1}{(1-r)}=\dfrac{1}{1-\dfrac{1}{4}}$ Our answer is: $ S_{n}=\dfrac{1}{3/4}=\dfrac{4}{3}$
