Nice solution.Thanks!
Sir, it is n = 1 ∑ ∞ n 2 1 .

Thanks. I mixed up with n = 0 ∑ ∞ 2 n + 1 1 .
What are you saying? Please explain.

It was a minor error in Chew Seong's solution. He had mistakenly written it as n = 0 ∑ ∞ n 2 1 .
On another note, about this problem, you may want to try this out as well.
S 1 = n = 1 ∑ ∞ n 2 1 = 1 1 + 4 1 + 9 1 + 1 6 1 + 2 5 1 + … = 6 π 2 Let, S 2 = 1 1 + 9 1 + 2 5 1 + … = n = 1 ∑ ∞ ( 2 n + 1 ) 2 1 ⟹ S 2 = 1 1 + 4 1 + 9 1 + 1 6 1 + 2 5 1 + … − 4 1 − 1 6 1 − … = ( 1 1 + 4 1 + 9 1 + 1 6 1 + 2 5 1 + … ) − ( 4 1 + 1 6 1 + … ) = n = 1 ∑ ∞ n 2 1 − n = 1 ∑ ∞ ( 2 n ) 2 1 = n = 1 ∑ ∞ n 2 1 − 4 1 n = 1 ∑ ∞ n 2 1 = 6 π 2 − 4 1 6 π 2 = 2 4 4 π 2 − π 2 = 2 4 3 π 2 = 8 π 2
Nice solution. Thanks!
