Here's ma solution:

The Sum of the series
a + ar + ar2 + ........ = a/1-r

Fom this the sum os the given series = Sk
Sk = k/ { 1 - (1/k+1) }
Sk = k+1

So,
S1 = 1+1 = 2

Now the sum of the series.
S12+S22+S32+...............
= 22 + 32 + ....... (2n)2
=12 + 22 + 32 + ........ + (2n)2 - 12

(Adding & Substracting 12)

We know for series of "n" terms of 12+22+.......+(n)
S = n(n+1)(2n+1)/6

So appplying the same for "2n" terms we have:
S12+S22+S32+...............
= [ (2n)(2n+1)(4n+1)/6 ] - 1
=
[ (2n)(2n+1)(4n+1)-6/6 ]

= (n)(2n+1)(4n+1)-3
           3

Hope you all find it useful.
Rate if useful.

Cheers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

oh sry lokesh, didn't read ur soln properly. u were close definitely. and cHimanshu was right. only smthing waz to be added to ur answer.
S1, S2, S3, ...., Sn are clearly mentioned sums. question doesn't say anything beyond dat. if it had been given dat Sn=n+1, den u cud have taken S(2n-1) = 2(n+1)-1.
Hope u got it.

see ....if it is given that n is a constant..........then ur solution is correct...
and if n is variable then Karthik's and waterdemon's solution r correct........
this is my final conclusion..
 
and I think if it is not mentioned,then we'll treat it as variable..

understand the language of question yaar
"If S1, S2, S3, ...., Sn are sums of infinite geometric series whose first terms are 1, 2, 3, ..., n and whose common ratios are 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, ...., 1/n+1 respectively....". Series stops at Sn. Its not like S1, S2, S3,...., Sn, ...., S(2n-1),.....and so on.
