Similarly, if x take values 2
...
001,2
...
Even then the numerical difference
between x and 2 gets closure to 0
...

In general, x  a means that the variable x and x takes values either less than or greater than that
of a and the numerical difference between x and a can be made as small as we please
...
It can be symbolically written as: lim f ( x)  k

Factorization Method:
a) Factorize the numerator and denominator and cancel the common factors from the numerator and
the denominator
...

c) Apply quotient rule of limit
