Limit(sin(4*x)/sin(x), x, 0)
Detail solution
Let's take the limit
lim⁡x→0+(sin⁡(4x)sin⁡(x))\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(4 x \right)}}{\sin{\left(x \right)}}\right)
transform
lim⁡x→0+(sin⁡(4x)sin⁡(x))=lim⁡x→0+(sin⁡(4x)xxsin⁡(x))\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(4 x \right)}}{\sin{\left(x \right)}}\right) = \lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(4 x \right)}}{x} \frac{x}{\sin{\left(x \right)}}\right)
=
lim⁡x→0+(sin⁡(4x)x)lim⁡x→0+(xsin⁡(x))\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(4 x \right)}}{x}\right) \lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{x}{\sin{\left(x \right)}}\right)
=
Do replacement
u=4xu = 4 x
and
v=xv = x
then
lim⁡x→0+(sin⁡(4x)sin⁡(x))=lim⁡x→0+(sin⁡(4x)x)lim⁡x→0+(xsin⁡(x))\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(4 x \right)}}{\sin{\left(x \right)}}\right) = \lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(4 x \right)}}{x}\right) \lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{x}{\sin{\left(x \right)}}\right)
lim⁡x→0+(sin⁡(4x)sin⁡(x))=lim⁡u→0+(4sin⁡(u)u)lim⁡v→0+(vsin⁡(v))\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(4 x \right)}}{\sin{\left(x \right)}}\right) = \lim_{u \to 0^+}\left(\frac{4 \sin{\left(u \right)}}{u}\right) \lim_{v \to 0^+}\left(\frac{v}{\sin{\left(v \right)}}\right)
=
4lim⁡u→0+(sin⁡(u)u)lim⁡v→0+(vsin⁡(v))4 \lim_{u \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(u \right)}}{u}\right) \lim_{v \to 0^+}\left(\frac{v}{\sin{\left(v \right)}}\right)
=
4lim⁡u→0+(sin⁡(u)u)(lim⁡v→0+(sin⁡(v)v))−14 \lim_{u \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(u \right)}}{u}\right) \left(\lim_{v \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(v \right)}}{v}\right)\right)^{-1}
The limit
lim⁡u→0+(sin⁡(u)u)\lim_{u \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(u \right)}}{u}\right)
and
lim⁡v→0+(sin⁡(v)v)\lim_{v \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(v \right)}}{v}\right)
is first remarkable limit, is equal to 1.
then
=
4(lim⁡v→0+(sin⁡(v)v))−14 \left(\lim_{v \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(v \right)}}{v}\right)\right)^{-1}
=
44

The final answer:
lim⁡x→0+(sin⁡(4x)sin⁡(x))=4\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(4 x \right)}}{\sin{\left(x \right)}}\right) = 4
Lopital's rule
We have indeterminateness of type
0/0,

i.e. limit for the numerator is
lim⁡x→0+sin⁡(4x)=0\lim_{x \to 0^+} \sin{\left(4 x \right)} = 0
and limit for the denominator is
lim⁡x→0+sin⁡(x)=0\lim_{x \to 0^+} \sin{\left(x \right)} = 0
Let's take derivatives of the numerator and denominator until we eliminate indeterninateness.
lim⁡x→0+(sin⁡(4x)sin⁡(x))\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\sin{\left(4 x \right)}}{\sin{\left(x \right)}}\right)
=
lim⁡x→0+(ddxsin⁡(4x)ddxsin⁡(x))\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(4 x \right)}}{\frac{d}{d x} \sin{\left(x \right)}}\right)
=
lim⁡x→0+(4cos⁡(4x)cos⁡(x))\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{4 \cos{\left(4 x \right)}}{\cos{\left(x \right)}}\right)
=
lim⁡x→0+(4cos⁡(x))\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{4}{\cos{\left(x \right)}}\right)
=
lim⁡x→0+(4cos⁡(x))\lim_{x \to 0^+}\left(\frac{4}{\cos{\left(x \right)}}\right)
=
44
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)
