Solve for s6 s_6=(2(1-5^6))/(1-5)

$s_{6} = \frac{2 (1 - 5^{6})}{1 - 5}$

Step 1

Simplify the numerator.

Raise $5$ to the power of $6$ .

$s_{6} = \frac{2 (1 - 1 \cdot 15625)}{1 - 5}$

Multiply $- 1$ by $15625$ .

$s_{6} = \frac{2 (1 - 15625)}{1 - 5}$

Subtract $15625$ from $1$ .

$s_{6} = \frac{2 \cdot - 15624}{1 - 5}$

$s_{6} = \frac{2 \cdot - 15624}{1 - 5}$

Step 2

Simplify the expression.

Subtract $5$ from $1$ .

$s_{6} = \frac{2 \cdot - 15624}{- 4}$

Multiply $2$ by $- 15624$ .

$s_{6} = \frac{- 31248}{- 4}$

Divide $- 31248$ by $- 4$ .

$s_{6} = 7812$

$s_{6} = 7812$
