Sagot :

Answer:

504

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

common ratio (r) = 0.5

first term () is 256

Sum of first n terms in geometric series is given by the formula (r < 1):

Hence, sum of first 6 terms mean:

r = 0.5

a = 256

n = 6

Substituting, we get the answer to be:

The sum of first 6 terms is 504
