$lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}} \int_{1}^{x} \frac{1}{\sqrt{t}} d t$

Step 1

Move the term $\int_{1}^{x} \frac{1}{\sqrt{t}} d t$ outside of the limit because it is constant with respect to $x$ .

$\int_{1}^{x} \frac{1}{\sqrt{t}} d t lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}$

Step 2

Since its numerator approaches a real number while its denominator is unbounded, the fraction $\frac{1}{\sqrt{x}}$ approaches $0$ .

$\int_{1}^{x} \frac{1}{\sqrt{t}} d t \cdot 0$
