Question

Find the indicated sum.

The image shows a mathematical expression using summation notation:

\[
\sum_{i=1}^{4} \frac{1}{8i}
\]

This represents the sum of the reciprocals of eight times the integers from 1 to 4. Specifically, it expands to:

\[
\frac{1}{8 \times 1} + \frac{1}{8 \times 2} + \frac{1}{8 \times 3} + \frac{1}{8 \times 4}
\]

This expression is useful for calculating series or evaluating expressions in mathematical analysis, typically taught in advanced algebra or calculus courses.
