Consider an equilateral triangle of a side of unit length. A new equilateral triangle is formed by joining the mid-points of the first one, then a third equilateral triangle is formed by joining the mid-points of the second. The process is continued. The sum of perimeters of all triangles thus formed is

Explanation
Perimeters form a GP: 3 + 3/2 + 3/4 + ... = 3/(1-1/2) = 6 units.
