Answer:

We want to find:


\lim_(n \to \infty) \frac{\sqrt[n]{n!} }{n}

Here we can use Stirling's approximation, which says that for large values of n, we get:


n! = √(2*\pi*n) *((n)/(e) )^n

Because here we are taking the limit when n tends to infinity, we can use this approximation.

Then we get.


\lim_(n \to \infty) \frac{\sqrt[n]{n!} }{n} = \lim_(n \to \infty) \frac{\sqrt[n]{√(2*\pi*n) *((n)/(e) )^n} }{n} = \lim_(n \to \infty) (n)/(e*n) *\sqrt[2*n]{2*\pi*n}

Now we can just simplify this, so we get:


\lim_(n \to \infty) (1)/(e) *\sqrt[2*n]{2*\pi*n} \\

And we can rewrite it as:


\lim_(n \to \infty) (1)/(e) *(2*\pi*n)^(1/2n)

The important part here is the exponent, as n tends to infinite, the exponent tends to zero.

Thus:


\lim_(n \to \infty) (1)/(e) *(2*\pi*n)^(1/2n) = (1)/(e)*1 = (1)/(e)
