A little quiz/lesson on infinity and how it breaks common sense. Starting off fairly simple, before getting weird.
1
What is the sum of this pattern?: 1-1/2-1/4-1/8-1/16-1/32... (All fractions are negative, continuing ad infinitum)
2
What is the sum of this pattern?: 1-1/2-1/3-1/4-1/5-1/6-1/7-1/8... (All fractions are negative, continuing ad infinitum)
3
What is the sum of this pattern?: 1-1/2+1/3-1/4+1/5-1/6+1/7-1/8... (All odd fractions are positive, all even fractions are negative, continuing ad infinitum)
4
What is the sum of this pattern?: 1+1/3-1/2+1/5+1/7-1/4+1/9+1/11-1/6... (All odd fractions are positive, all even fractions are negative, continuing ad infinitum)
5
Which range of numbers contains more unique values?
6
Starting with 1, we remove 1/3 of it. Then, we remove 1/3 of the result of that. Then remove 1/3 of the result of that, ad infinitum. How much of the original 1 is ultimately removed?

What's the pattern on 4? I guess I glanced over it too quickly XD

It's the same numbers as 3, ordered from highest to lowest absolute value, except it goes positive-positive-negative-positive-positive-negative, instead of positive-negative-positive-negative
