5+5=10 so it must be 64+64.
Using Turbo Pascal, we have the following code
# var a,b,c,i:real;i:longint;
# begin
# c:=0;
# for i:=1 to 22 do
# begin
# a:=1/(exp((2*i-1)*ln(7)));
# b:=1/(exp((2*i-1)*ln(7)));
# c:=a+b;
# end;
# write(c:0:10);
# readln;
# end.
After you press Crtl+F9, you'll see the result is 0 . 1 8 7 5 0 0 0 0 0 0 ≈ 1 6 3

We write A = ( 7 1 ) 1 + ( 7 1 ) 2 + ( 7 1 ) 3 + . . . + ( 7 1 ) 2 + ( 7 1 ) 4 + . . .
We can see this expression is an infinite geometric series with d 1 = 7 1 and d 2 = ( 7 1 ) 2 are common ratio. So that we have:
A = 1 − 7 1 7 1 + 1 − ( 7 1 ) 2 ( 7 1 ) 2 = 1 6 3

We have the infinite series:
Σ k = 1 ∞ 7 2 k − 1 1 + 7 2 k 2 = 9 ⋅ Σ k = 1 ∞ ( 4 9 1 ) k = 9 ⋅ ( 1 − 1 / 4 9 1 / 4 9 ) = 9 ( 4 8 1 ) = 1 6 3 .
