Can anyone show me step by step how to determine the following limit?

$\lim _{x\to \infty \:}\left(\frac{\sin \left(\sin \left(x\right)\right)}{x}\right)$

since $$ |\sin(\cdot)|\le 1 $$ then using the above inequality you can show that: $$ 0\le\left|\frac{\sin \left(\sin \left(x\right)\right)}{x}\right|\le\frac{1}{|x|} \to 0 \,\,\,{\rm{for}}\,\,\,x\to\infty $$ by the squeeze theorem the limit is $0$.

$| \sin(\sin(x))| \le 1$ for all $x$. Hence the limit in question is $=0$
