I found an and the sum of an and I am getting 1/4 as a1. Apparently 1/4 is wrong. Not sure why that is because the other two are correct and plugging 1 into an I get 1/4 and plugging in 1 into Sn-Sn-1=an I still get 1/4.

If the nth partial sum of a series > an is
n = 1
n - 7
Sn
n + 7
find a, and >
an
n = 1
1
a1 =
4
14
an =
(for n * 1)
(n+ 6)(n+7)
E an
1
n = 1
