Let $\mathrm{E}_1: \frac{x^2}{9}+\frac{y^2}{4}=1$ be an ellipse. Ellipses $\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{i}}$ 's are constructed such that their centres and eccentricities are same as that of $\mathrm{E}_1$, and the length of minor axis of $\mathrm{E}_{\mathrm{i}}$ is the length of major axis of $E_{i+1}(i \geq 1)$. If $A_i$ is the area of the ellipse $E_i$, then $\frac{5}{\pi}\left(\sum\limits_{i=1}^{\infty} A_i\right)$, is equal to _______.
