Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
So I was given the fact that for an upper bound u to become the supremum of a set S, for every ε>0 there is $$x \in S$$ such that x>u-ε. In this case, I'm supposed to find n and m such that $${\frac{n}{{n + m}} > 1 - \varepsilon }$$ for every ε given. However, I cannot express n and m in terms of ε explicitly. Any hints or comments will be very appreciated, thanks!
