$$\mathrm{Which}\:\mathrm{one}\:\mathrm{of}\:\mathrm{the}\:\mathrm{following}\:\mathrm{series}\:\mathrm{is}\:\boldsymbol{\mathrm{N}}\mathrm{o}\boldsymbol{\mathrm{t}}\:\mathrm{convergent}? \\ $$$$\mathrm{A}.\:\underset{\mathrm{r}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{r}^{\mathrm{3}} } \\ $$$$\mathrm{B}.\:\underset{\mathrm{r}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{r}^{\mathrm{2}} } \\ $$$$\mathrm{C}.\:\underset{\mathrm{r}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{r}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{4}} \\ $$$$\mathrm{D}.\:\underset{\mathrm{r}=\mathrm{1}} {\overset{\infty} {\sum}}\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{5r}} \\ $$

C.  If r=2, then (1/(2^2 −4))=(1/0)

$$\mathrm{C}. \\ $$$$\mathrm{If}\:\mathrm{r}=\mathrm{2},\:\mathrm{then}\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}^{\mathrm{2}} −\mathrm{4}}=\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{0}} \\ $$
