In which of the following series can be the formula S = \(\frac{a}{1 - r}\) where a is the first term and r is the common ratio, be used to find the sum of all the terms?

  • A 4 + 8 + 16 + 32 + ...
  • B \(\frac{1}{2}\) + 2 \(\frac{1}{2}\) + 12\(\frac{1}{2}\) + 62 \(\frac{1}{2}\) + ..
  • C \(\frac{4}{81}\) + \(\frac{2}{27}\) + \(\frac{1}{9}\) + \(\frac{1}{6}\) + ...
  • D 128 + 64 + 32 + 16 + ...

The correct answer is D. 128 + 64 + 32 + 16 + ...
