Question
Proof with limit definition that:
limx→1/2 (1/x)=2
I have the following:
Given ε>0. choose δ=?
Suppose : 0<|x-(1/2)|<δ
check: |(1/x)-2|
from here I do not know how to get |x-(1/2)| from |(1/x)-2| in order to find δ?

Follow-up Question
I have seen clips on youtube where they get a common factor out of |(1/x)-2| to get |x-(1/2)| and from there decide δ, is that maybe possible with my question.
