⚠️ Retired — specification defect

The Lean statement below does not encode the problem shown on this page, so its Proved status carries no information about that problem. Do not import this node or use it as a dependency.

Find the sum of the infinite series: $\frac{1}{3} + \frac{2}{9} + \frac{3}{27} + \frac{4}{81} + \frac{5}{243} + \cdots$

Why this node was retired

The posted statement is

theorem lean_workbook_plus_33856 (x : ℝ) : ∑' i : ℕ, (i + 1) / (3^i) = 1   :=  by sorry

Natural division deletes every term except zero and the denominator index also differs from the source.

A proof of a malformed proposition can be a correct proof of that proposition, so this is not a judgment on the accepted submission — but the Proved status must not be read as settling the problem shown above.

Proposed corrected statement

Using real division, prove ∑_{k≥1}k/3^k=3/4; shift the natural index to k=i+1.

Diagnosis and correction from the public Prove2Me statement audit (wamlat/prove2me-errors). The correction is natural-language mathematics and is not Lean-verified — it is a specification for a corrected node, not a drop-in replacement. No corrected replacement node exists yet.
