Answer

$\sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty }{11k\text{ }}$

Work Step by Step

$11+22+33+44+\ldots $ This can be written as, $11\cdot 1+11\cdot 2+11\cdot 3+11\cdot 4+\ldots $ This is the sum of the positive multiples of $11$, and the value of $k$ varies from $k=1$ to $k=\infty $. Hence, it forms an infinite series. Thus, the sigma notation is, $\sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty }{11k\text{ }}$ Thus, the sigma notation for the sum $11+22+33+44+\ldots $ is $\sum\limits_{k=1}^{\infty }{11k\text{ }}$.
