Limit as n approaches infinity for (a/b)^n?

OpenStudy (welshfella):

If |a/b| < 1 then then I think the limit = 0

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

\[\large \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty }\left( \frac{ a }{ b }\right)^n =\]0 as welsh said, or positive or negative infinity if |a/b| > 1

OpenStudy (faiqraees):

I knew the answer was 0. I was hoping for a mathematical solution.

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

Like what, though?

OpenStudy (agent0smith):

It's like a geometric series common ratio \[\large \lim_{n \rightarrow \infty }r^n = 0\]for \(\large |r| < 1\)
