I dont know man.. but I checked this question in Google Chrome and Safari web browser.. what you have put is so wide that these community sponsor ads come over it and so I can't even read the question properly..

anyone facing such problem??

If you copy the image to a Word doc you should be able to see all of it without the banner ads covering it.

Hey thanks buddy..

as I see it.. its a basic geometric progression.. with initial value a = 1/2
and r = -1/2 and n = 10

so sum of n terms in a geometric progression is a(1-r^n)/(1-r)

just put the values.. and this gives..

This is approximately 1/3rd.. so I would choose D.. i.e. between 1/4 and 1/2
