If the sum of the first 15 tems of the

Question:

If the sum of the first 15 tems of the $\operatorname{series}\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{3}+\left(1 \frac{1}{2}\right)^{3}+\left(2 \frac{1}{4}\right)^{3}+3^{3}+\left(3 \frac{3}{4}\right)^{3}+\ldots$ is

equal to $225 \mathrm{k}$, then $\mathrm{k}$ is equal to :

  1. 9

  2. 27

  3. 108

  4. 54


Correct Option: , 2

Solution:

$\mathrm{S}=\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^{3}+\left(\frac{6}{4}\right)^{3}+\left(\frac{9}{4}\right)^{3}+\left(\frac{12}{4}\right)^{3}+\ldots \ldots \ldots \ldots 15$ term

$=\frac{27}{64} \sum_{r=1}^{15} r^{3}$

$=\frac{27}{64} \cdot\left[\frac{15(15+1)}{2}\right]^{2}$

$=225 \mathrm{~K}$ (Given in question)

$K=27$
