(B) Let $S_n = 6 + 66 + 666 + \dots$ up to $n$ terms.$S_n = 6(1 + 11 + 111 + \dots 	ext{ up to } n 	ext{ terms})$$S_n = \frac{6}{9}(9 + 99 + 999 + \dots 	ext{ up to } n 	ext{ terms})$$S_n = \frac{2}{3}((10 - 1) + (10^2 - 1) + (10^3 - 1) + \dots + (10^n - 1))$$S_n = \frac{2}{3}((10 + 10^2 + 10^3 + \dots + 10^n) - (1 + 1 + 1 + \dots + 1 	ext{ up to } n 	ext{ terms}))$Using the sum of a geometric progression formula $S = a(r^n - 1)/(r - 1)$:$S_n = \frac{2}{3} \left( \frac{10(10^n - 1)}{10 - 1} - n ight)$$S_n = \frac{2}{3} \left( \frac{10(10^n - 1)}{9} - n ight)$$S_n = \frac{2}{3} \left( \frac{10^{n+1} - 10 - 9n}{9} ight)$$S_n = \frac{2(10^{n+1} - 9n - 10)}{27}$.

The sum of the series $6 + 66 + 666 + \dots$ up to $n$ terms is:
