Solution

The sum of an infinite geometric series can be found using the formula S = a / (1 - r), where 'a' is the first term and 'r' is the common ratio.

In this case, a = 1 and r = 1/2.

Substituting these values into the formula gives:

S = 1 / (1 - 1/2) = 1 / 0.5 = 2

So, the sum of the infinite geometric series is 2.
