Can someone please help me? I don't understand how to do these! Thanks so much.
Wrtie the fraction 8/11 as an infinite series using summation notation?

Thanks so much!
 
Hint:

8/11 = 72/99 = 72/(10^2) + 72/(10^4)/ + 72/(10^6) ...
 
One way may be:

\(\displaystyle \L\\8\sum_{n=1}^{\infty}\frac{1}{12^{n}}\)
