Direct substitution gives ∞∞\tfrac{\infty}{\infty}. Divide every term by the denominator's highest power, x2x^2:

5−3x+2x24+1x−7x2.\frac{5 - \dfrac{3}{x} + \dfrac{2}{x^2}}{4 + \dfrac{1}{x} - \dfrac{7}{x^2}}.

As x→∞x\to\infty, each 1x\tfrac1{x} and 1x2\tfrac1{x^2} term →0\to0, leaving 5−0+04+0−0=54\dfrac{5-0+0}{4+0-0}=\dfrac54. …
