As said already, I cannot read the text in the photo reliably. Please post it as text. What have you tried so far? You cannot include an infinite number of elements in a sum, because this would take infinite time to run. So are ayou sure, that the sum converges?

d=3.6e-6;r=.15;
n=1:1e6;%not quite infinate
eqn=@(t)24/pi^2*sum((1./(n-.5).^2).*exp(-(n-.5).^2*pi^2*d*t/r^2))-12.5;
T=fzero(eqn,-.0000000098);

It is the starting point to look for the zero crossing. You have to get close or else fzero will fail (goes to inf).
