Calculating the natural logarithm of $1$
If we directly evaluate the limit $\lim_{x\to0}\left(\frac{\ln\left(1+3\sin\left(x\right)\right)}{x}\right)$ as $x$ tends to $0$, we can see that it gives us an indeterminate form
We can solve this limit by applying L'Hôpital's rule, which consists of calculating the derivative of both the numerator and the denominator separately
Find the derivative of the numerator
The derivative of the natural logarithm of a function is equal to the derivative of the function divided by that function. If $f(x)=ln\:a$ (where $a$ is a function of $x$), then $\displaystyle f'(x)=\frac{a'}{a}$
The derivative of a sum of two or more functions is the sum of the derivatives of each function
The derivative of a function multiplied by a constant is equal to the constant times the derivative of the function
The derivative of the sine of a function is equal to the cosine of that function times the derivative of that function, in other words, if ${f(x) = \sin(x)}$, then ${f'(x) = \cos(x)\cdot D_x(x)}$
Multiplying the fraction by $3\cos\left(x\right)$
Find the derivative of the denominator
The derivative of the linear function is equal to $1$
Any expression divided by one ($1$) is equal to that same expression
After deriving both the numerator and denominator, and simplifying, the limit results in
Evaluate the limit $\lim_{x\to0}\left(\frac{3\cos\left(x\right)}{1+3\sin\left(x\right)}\right)$ by replacing all occurrences of $x$ by $0$
