    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given that,

    y = (1 + 1/n) ⁿ

    As n goes larger 1/n approaches 0

    y=1^∞

    Then, this is the indefinite,

    So let take 'In' of both sides

    y = (1 + 1/n) ⁿ

    In (y) = In ((1+1/n) ⁿ)

    From law of logarithm

    LogAⁿ=nLogA

    Then, we have

    In (y) = In ((1+1/n) ⁿ)

    In (y) = n•In (1+1/n)

    This can be rewritten to conform to L'Hospital Rule

    In (y) = n / 1 / In (1+1/n)

    As n approaches infinity

    n also approaches infinity

    And In (1+1/n) approaches 0, then, 1/In (1+1/n) approaches infinity

    Then we have another indeterminate

    Then, applying L'Hospital

    Differentiating both the denominator and numerator

    The differential of 1/In (1+1/n)

    n^-2In (1+1/n) / (In (1+1/n)) ²

    1 / n²In (1+1/n)

    Then, apply L'Hospital

    In (y) = 1 / n²In (1+1/n)

    As n tends to infinity

    In (y) = 0

    Take exponential of both sides

    y=exp (0)

    y=1

    As n goes larger the larger the irrational number but when n goes to infinity then the irrational number goes to 1
