  • Thanxz alot the video give very nice and simple explanation.

    I have 1 simple question may be it sound senseless but i have been always wondering WHY WE NEED TO MULTIPLY OUR SERIES WITH r to get the another series and WHY WE ARE SUBTRACTING Sn with rSn???

  • @Vupadhayay So that we can eliminate many of the the terms. It's a clever technique.
