Limit(sin(5*x)/((2*x)), x, 0)
Detail solution
Let's take the limit
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(5 x \right)}}{2 x}\right)$$
Do replacement
$$u = 5 x$$
then
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(5 x \right)}}{2 x}\right) = \lim_{u \to 0^+}\left(\frac{5 \sin{\left(u \right)}}{2 u}\right)$$
=
$$\frac{5 \lim_{u \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(u \right)}}{u}\right)}{2}$$
The limit
$$\lim_{u \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(u \right)}}{u}\right)$$
is first remarkable limit, is equal to 1.

The final answer:
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(5 x \right)}}{2 x}\right) = \frac{5}{2}$$
Lopital's rule
We have indeterminateness of type
0/0,

i.e. limit for the numerator is
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+} \sin{\left(5 x \right)} = 0$$
and limit for the denominator is
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(2 x\right) = 0$$
Let's take derivatives of the numerator and denominator until we eliminate indeterninateness.
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(5 x \right)}}{2 x}\right)$$
=
Let's transform the function under the limit a few
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(5 x \right)}}{2 x}\right)$$
=
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(5 x \right)}}{\frac{d}{d x} 2 x}\right)$$
=
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{5 \cos{\left(5 x \right)}}{2}\right)$$
=
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+} \frac{5}{2}$$
=
$$\lim_{x \to 0^+} \frac{5}{2}$$
=
$$\frac{5}{2}$$
It can be seen that we have applied Lopital's rule (we have taken derivatives with respect to the numerator and denominator) 1 time(s)
