\(B=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{9}+\frac{1}{27}+...+\frac{1}{6561}\)
\(B=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3^2}+\frac{1}{3^3}+...+\frac{1}{3^8}\)
\(3B=1+\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3^2}+...+\frac{1}{3^7}\)
\(3B-B=\left(1+\frac{1}{3}+...+\frac{1}{3^7}\right)-\left(\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{3^2}+...+\frac{1}{3^8}\right)\)
\(2B=1-\frac{1}{3^8}\)
\(B=\frac{1-\frac{1}{3^8}}{2}\)
B = 1/3 + 1/9 + 1/27 + ... + 1/6561
B = 1/3^1 + 1/3^2 + 1/3^3 + ... + 1/3^8
3B = 1 + 1/3^1 + 1/3^2 + ... + 1/3^7
3B - B = ( 1 + 1/3^1 +1/3^2 + ... + 1/3^7 ) - ( 1/3^1 + 1/3^2 + 1/3^3 + .... + 1/3^8 )
2B = 1 - 1/3^8
B = 1 - 1/3^8 / 2
