Let
D
∈
N
{\textstyle D\in \mathbb {N} }
be the age of the perpetual stew in days and let
p
∈
[
0
,
1
)
{\displaystyle p\in [0,1)}
the percentage (where
p
=
0.17
{\displaystyle p=0.17}
equals to 17 %) of stew left in the pot after every day. The stew is filled with fresh ingredients and stirred thoroughly at the beginning of each day. Then the average age (in days) of the stew at the time of the refilling is given by the partial sum

{\displaystyle A_{p,D}=\sum _{d=0}^{D}d\,p^{d}={\frac {D\,p^{D+2}-(D+1)\,p^{D+1}+p}{(1-p)^{2}}},}
whose age limit

with respect to

{\textstyle D}
is given as the series

{\displaystyle A_{p}=\lim _{D\to \infty }A_{p,D}=\sum _{d=0}^{\infty }d\,p^{d}={\frac {p}{(1-p)^{2}}}.}
The partial sum
A

,
D
{\textstyle A_{p,D}}
consists of nonnegative summands, hence increases as
D
{\textstyle D}
or
p
{\textstyle p}
is increasing, and
A
p
{\textstyle A_{p}}
is the limit and an upper bound for
D

.
{\textstyle D\to \infty .}
The limit
lim

A
p
=

{\textstyle \lim _{p\to 1}A_{p}=\infty }
tends to infinity and behaves as naively expected. Naturally,
A

D
{\textstyle A_{p,D}}
and
A
p
{\textstyle A_{p}}
describe upper bounds if
p

{\displaystyle p\in [0,1)}
is an upper bound for the amount of stew left in the pot after every day. Trivially the continuation is
