It's not correct because it's not a sum it's a series. You can calculate the value of an infinite convergent series, but not a divergent one. The term as written is a bastardisation of the equals sign in which it means "is associated with" and not "is equal to". Anyway that's besides the point because for this problem you do not need to use some shifty value for an infinite divergent series, you just need to know the series and how to calculate the value to the nth term of the series.

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances.
