S(t)=Σ_(n=1) ^∞ t^n =(t/(1−t)) , ∣t∣<1 ⇒S ′(t)=Σ_(n=1) ^∞ nt^(n−1) =(1/((1−t)^2 )) ⇒Σ_(n=1) ^∞ nt^n =(t/((1−t)^2 )) , t=((1/5)) ⇒Σ_(n=1) ^∞ (n/5^n )=((1/5)/((1−(1/5))^2 ))=(1/5)×((5/4))^2 =(5/(16))

$${S}\left({t}\right)=\underset{{n}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}{t}^{{n}} =\frac{{t}}{\mathrm{1}−{t}}\:,\:\mid{t}\mid<\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{S}\:'\left({t}\right)=\underset{{n}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}{nt}^{{n}−\mathrm{1}} =\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\left(\mathrm{1}−{t}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} } \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\underset{{n}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}{nt}^{{n}} =\frac{{t}}{\left(\mathrm{1}−{t}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }\:,\:{t}=\left(\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5}}\right) \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\underset{{n}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\frac{{n}}{\mathrm{5}^{{n}} }=\frac{\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5}}}{\left(\mathrm{1}−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} }=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5}}×\left(\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{4}}\right)^{\mathrm{2}} =\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{16}} \\ $$

You do the subtraction using the values from the 2 previous lines. That is, (1/5)+((2/5^2 )−(1/5^2 ))+((3/5^3 )−(2/5^3 ))+((4/5^4 )−(3/5^4 ))+∙∙∙

$$\mathrm{You}\:\mathrm{do}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{subtraction}\:\mathrm{using}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{values} \\ $$$$\mathrm{from}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{2}\:\mathrm{previous}\:\mathrm{lines}.\:\mathrm{That}\:\mathrm{is}, \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5}}+\left(\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{5}^{\mathrm{2}} }−\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5}^{\mathrm{2}} }\right)+\left(\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{5}^{\mathrm{3}} }−\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{5}^{\mathrm{3}} }\right)+\left(\frac{\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{5}^{\mathrm{4}} }−\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{5}^{\mathrm{4}} }\right)+\centerdot\centerdot\centerdot \\ $$
