For an Arithmetic Progression, Sum = 15[a + 7d].{a = first term and d = common difference} For a Geometric Progression, Sum = a[1-r^15]/(r-1).{r = common ratio }.
It's a geometric progression with the initial term 1/2 and common ratio 1/2. The infinite sum of the series is 1.
The absolute value of the common ratio is less than 1.
Divide any term in the sequence by the previous term. That is the common ratio of a geometric series. If the series is defined in the form of a recurrence relationship, it is even simpler. For a geometric series with common ratio r, the recurrence relation is Un+1 = r*Un for n = 1, 2, 3, ...
A geometric series represents the partial sums of a geometric sequence. The nth term in a geometric series with first term a and common ratio r is:T(n) = a(1 - r^n)/(1 - r)
The common ratio is the ratio of the nth term (n > 1) to the (n-1)th term. For the progression to be geometric, this ratio must be a non-zero constant.
It is a geometric progression with common ratio 0.5
The geometric series is, itself, a sum of a geometric progression. The sum of an infinite geometric sequence exists if the common ratio has an absolute value which is less than 1, and not if it is 1 or greater.

It's a geometric progression with the initial term 1/2 and common ratio 1/2. The infinite sum of the series is 1.
In an arithmetic progression the difference between each term (except the first) and the one before is a constant. In a geometric progression, their ratio is a constant. That is, Arithmetic progression U(n) - U(n-1) = d, where d, the common difference, is a constant and n = 2, 3, 4, ... Equivalently, U(n) = U(n-1) + d = U(1) + (n-1)*d Geometric progression U(n) / U(n-1) = r, where r, the common ratio is a non-zero constant and n = 2, 3, 4, ... Equivalently, U(n) = U(n-1)*r = U(1)*r^(n-1).

The sum to infinity of a geometric series is given by the formula Sā=a1/(1-r), where a1 is the first term in the series and r is found by dividing any term by the term immediately before it.
