Limit(1/n, n, oo, dir='-')
Detail solution
Let's take the limit
lim⁡n→∞1n\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{n}
Let's divide numerator and denominator by n:
lim⁡n→∞1n\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{n} =
lim⁡n→∞(1n)\lim_{n \to \infty}\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)
Do Replacement
u=1nu = \frac{1}{n}
then
lim⁡n→∞(1n)=lim⁡u→0+u\lim_{n \to \infty}\left(\frac{1}{n}\right) = \lim_{u \to 0^+} u
=
0=00 = 0

The final answer:
lim⁡n→∞1n=0\lim_{n \to \infty} \frac{1}{n} = 0
Lopital's rule
There is no sense to apply Lopital's rule to this function since there is no indeterminateness of 0/0 or oo/oo type
