Σ_(n=1) ^∞ (n/4^n )=(1/4)+(2/(16))+(3/(64))+(4/(256))+(5/(1024))+....=S_n (S_n /4)= (1/(16))+(2/(64))+(3/(256))+(4/(1024))+...... subtracting ((3S_n )/4)=(1/4)+(1/(16))+(1/(64))+(1/(256))+(1/(1024))+...... ((3S_n )/4)=(1/3)⇒S_n =(4/9)

$$\underset{{n}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\frac{{n}}{\mathrm{4}^{{n}} }=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}+\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{16}}+\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{64}}+\frac{\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{256}}+\frac{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{1024}}+….={S}_{{n}} \\ $$$$\:\:\:\:\:\:\frac{{S}_{{n}} }{\mathrm{4}}=\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{16}}+\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{64}}+\frac{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{256}}+\frac{\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{1024}}+…… \\ $$$${subtracting} \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{3}{S}_{{n}} }{\mathrm{4}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{4}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{16}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{64}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{256}}+\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{1024}}+…… \\ $$$$\frac{\mathrm{3}{S}_{{n}} }{\mathrm{4}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}\Rightarrow{S}_{{n}} =\frac{\mathrm{4}}{\mathrm{9}} \\ $$$$ \\ $$

let S = Σ_(n = 1) ^∞ ((n+1)/4^n ) & X=Σ_(n = 1) ^∞ (n/4^n ) ⇔S = X+Σ_(n = 1) ^∞ (1/4^n ) S = X + ((1/4)/(1−(1/4))) ;(geometric P ) S = X+(1/3) . in the other hand we have Σ_(n = 1) ^∞ ((n+1)/4^n ) = 4 Σ_(n = 1) ^∞ (n/4^n ) −1 S = 4X−1 = X+(1/3)⇒3X=(4/3); X = (4/9) Σ_(n = 1 ) ^∞ (n/4^n ) = (4/9) •
