zero..

How did you get the answer?

value of e is 2.71 approximately now if u put in the power of e a very large no to it.. e^-n=1/e^n e^n approaches infinite hence e^-n which we can write it as 1/e^n approaches zero because you know if u divide 1 with a very large no. say infinite it approaches zero.. got it?

Thank you very much! I didn't think of rewriting it as denominator.
