Sum of increasing geometric series Sum of the series 
$1 + \frac{1+3}{2!}+ \frac{1+3+3^2}{3!}+....... $
The series becomes $ \sum_{k=1}^{\infty} \frac {3^{k-1}}{k!}$.
How to calculate it's sum? Is it divergent due to the numerator?

We have series of type $\sum_{n = 1}^\infty a_n$, where $a_n = \frac{\sum_{j=1}^n 3^{j-1}}{n!} = \frac{1}{3} \frac{\sum_{j=1}^n 3^j}{n!}$
Since $\sum_{j=1}^n 3^j = 3 \cdot  \frac{1 - 3^n}{1-3} = \frac{3}{2}(3^n - 1)$
So, we get $a_n = \frac{1}{2} (\frac{3^n}{n!} - \frac{1}{n!})$
And our series look like:
$\frac{1}{2} \sum_{n=1}^\infty ( \frac{3^n}{n!} - \frac{1}{n!})$
Since both $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{3^n}{n!}$ and $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n!} $ are convergent ( u can use D'alambert test), we can split our infinite sum into $2$ sums, getting:
$\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n = \frac{1}{2} \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{3^n}{n!} - \frac{1}{2} \sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n!}$
Now, we should recall that $e^x = \sum_{n=0}^\infty \frac{x^n}{n!}$, so we have:
$\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{3^n}{n!} = e^3 - 1$ and similarly $\sum_{n=1}^\infty \frac{1}{n!} = e -1$. We finally get:
$\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_n = \frac{1}{2}(e^3 - 1 - e+ 1) = \frac{e}{2}(e^2-1)$
