\(2A=2+1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{2^3}+...+\frac{1}{2^{2016}}\)
\(2A-A=\left(2+1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{2^3}+...+\frac{1}{2^{2016}}\right)-\left(1+\frac{1}{2}+\frac{1}{2^2}+\frac{1}{2^3}+\frac{1}{2^4}+...+\frac{1}{2^{2017}}\right)\)
\(A=2-\frac{1}{2^{2017}}\)
A=1+1/2+1/22+1/23+...+1/22017
1/2A=1/2+1/22+1/23+1/24+...+1/22018
A-1/2A=(1+1/2+1/22+1/23+...+1/22017)-(1/2+1/22+1/23+1/24+...+1/22018)
A-1/2A=1-22012018
1/2A=1-1/22018
A=(1-1/22018).2
A=2-22019
