(B) The given series is $S = 1 + \frac{1}{3 \cdot 2^2} + \frac{1}{5 \cdot 2^4} + \frac{1}{7 \cdot 2^6} + \ldots$ We know the logarithmic expansion $\log _e \left( \frac{1+x}{1-x} \right) = 2 \left( x + \frac{x^3}{3} + \frac{x^5}{5} + \ldots \right)$ for $|x| Multiplying the series by $2$,we get $2S = 2 + \frac{2}{3 \cdot 2^2} + \frac{2}{5 \cdot 2^4} + \ldots = 2 + \frac{1}{3 \cdot 2} + \frac{1}{5 \cdot 2^3} + \ldots$ This is not quite right. Let us rewrite the series as $S = 2 \left( \frac{1}{2} + \frac{(1/2)^3}{3 \cdot 2} + \ldots \right)$ is incorrect. Let $x = 1/2$. The expansion is $2(x + x^3/3 + x^5/5 + \ldots) = \log _e \left( \frac{1+x}{1-x} \right)$. Our series is $1 + \frac{1}{3 \cdot 2^2} + \frac{1}{5 \cdot 2^4} + \ldots = \frac{1}{x} (x + \frac{x^3}{3} + \frac{x^5}{5} + \ldots)$ where $x = 1/2$. So,$S = \frac{1}{x} \cdot \frac{1}{2} \log _e \left( \frac{1+x}{1-x} \right) = \frac{1}{1/2} \cdot \frac{1}{2} \log _e \left( \frac{1+1/2}{1-1/2} \right) = \log _e \left( \frac{3/2}{1/2} \right) = \log _e 3$.

$1+\frac{1}{3 \cdot 2^2}+\frac{1}{5 \cdot 2^4}+\frac{1}{7 \cdot 2^6}+\ldots$ is equal to
