               Because z  is a fraction,

                                           1 ≤ p< q,    p ∈ N,   and q ∈ N.



               So, if we can find N ∈ N  such that

                                                     n
                                                   p
                                                        <,    ∀n> N,
                                                   q


               then because  |x| <p/q ,


                                                            p
                                                              n
                                                      n
                                          n
                                        |x − 0| = |x| <          <,    ∀n> N.
                                                            q
               In the definition of limit, this will mean that x  converges to 0.
                                                        n

               Notice that
