<s>[INST] How to read and execute $\sum_{1 \leq \ell 
How to read and execute this sum?
$$\sum_{1 \leq \ell <m<n} \frac{1}{5^{\ell}3^{m}2^{n}}$$
I am having trouble to understand where is my error.
The question does not say, but I am assuming that $\ell$ starts at $1$, $m$ at $2$, and so $n$ at $3$.
This is essential a product of pg:
$$\sum_{1 \leq \ell<m<n} \frac{1}{5^{\ell}3^{m}2^{n}} = \sum_{\ell=1}\frac{1}{5^{\ell}}\sum_{m=2}\frac{1}{3^{m}}\sum_{n=3}\frac{1}{2^{n}} = \frac{1/5}{1-1/5}\frac{1/9}{1-1/3}\frac{1/8}{1-1/2}$$
But this does not agree with the answer :/

*Assuming $n$ is not fixed:
Rewrite as triple sum
$$\sum_{1 \leq \ell <m<n} \frac{1}{5^{\ell}3^{m}2^{n}} = \sum_{\ell=1}^\infty\sum_{m=\ell+1}^\infty\sum_{n=m+1}^\infty\frac{1}{5^{\ell}3^{m}2^{n}} =\sum_{\ell=1}^\infty \frac{1}{5^\ell} \sum_{m=\ell+1}^\infty \frac{1}{3^m} \sum_{n=m+1}^\infty \frac{1}{2^n} $$
Then, this should be obvious in terms of how to read and execute.
Indeed, since each of them are Geometric Progressions, we have
$$\begin{align}\sum_{\ell=1}^\infty \frac{1}{5^\ell} \sum_{m=\ell+1}^\infty \frac{1}{3^m} \sum_{n=m+1}^\infty \frac{1}{2^n} &= \sum_{\ell=1}^\infty \frac{1}{5^\ell} \sum_{m=\ell+1}^\infty \frac{1}{3^m} \left(\frac{1}{2^m}\right) \\&= \sum_{\ell=1}^\infty \frac{1}{5^\ell} \sum_{m=\ell+1}^\infty \frac{1}{6^m} \\&= \sum_{\ell=1}^\infty \frac{1}{5^\ell}\left(\frac{1}{5\cdot 6^\ell}\right) \\& = \frac{1}{5}\sum_{\ell=1}^\infty \frac{1}{30^\ell} \\&= \frac{1}{5}\cdot\frac{1}{29} \\&= \frac{1}{145}\end{align} $$



*Assuming $n$ is fixed:
The sum will be a finite double sum and you can exclude $1/2^n$ from the sum(treating that as a constant). Then, again use the GP formula to calculate each $\ell$-sum and $m$-sum.
