2 1 1 + 2 3 1 + 2 5 1 + ⋯ = 2 1 + 2 2 1 + 2 3 1 + 2 4 1 + ⋯ − ( 2 2 1 + 2 4 1 + 2 6 1 + … ) = 1 − 3 1 = 3 2
This can be easily verified with these figures:
n = 2 1 1 + 2 3 1 + 2 5 1 + 2 7 1 + ⋯ ⟹ 4 n = 2 1 4 + 2 3 4 + 2 5 4 + 2 7 4 + ⋯ = 2 + n ∴ n = 3 2

n = 2 1 1 + 2 3 1 + 2 5 1 + ⋯ = n = 1 ∑ ∞ 2 2 n − 1 1 = n = 1 ∑ ∞ 2 ⋅ ( 4 1 ) n = 1 − 4 1 2 1 = 3 2
Alternative solution:
n 4 3 n n = 2 1 + 8 1 + 3 2 1 + ⋯ = 2 1 + 4 1 ( 2 1 + 8 1 + ⋯ ) = 2 1 + 4 1 n = 2 1 = 3 2
