    It looks like you made a very simple mistake wherein, although you got the leading-order behaviour right for the denominator, you accidentally focused on the wrong exponential function in the numerator. However, without seeing your method I can't be sure if this.

    Assuming you meant $n rightarrow infty$, as $n$ grows large, the numerator is dominated by $3^{n}$ and the denominator is dominated by $5^{n}$. You're taking the $n$th root of that ratio, which is just $frac{3}{5}$.

      Original answer



      Try starting with this
      $$
      lim_{ntoinfty} sqrt[n]{frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}} = lim_{ntoinfty} exp(logbigg(sqrt[n]{frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}}bigg))
      $$

      If you need to know what to do next, I added some further hints below. Try solving it yourself first. Hover with your mouse over them, if you want to know what the hints are. Good luck!



      Hint 1:




      $$ lim_{ntoinfty} exp(logbigg(sqrt[n]{frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}}bigg))=lim_{ntoinfty} exp(frac{logbigg(frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}bigg)}{n})$$




      Hint 2:




      $$ lim_{ntoinfty} exp(frac{logbigg(frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}bigg)}{n})=expbigg(lim_{ntoinfty} frac{logbigg(frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}bigg)}{n}bigg)$$




      Hint 3:




      l'Hôpital on the limit




      Hint 4:




      Divide both sides with 15^n




      Hint 5:




      $lim_{ntoinfty}frac{a}{b} = 0$ for $a<b$




      Hint 6:




      $$expbigg(lim_{ntoinfty} frac{logbigg(frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}bigg)}{n}bigg) = exp(log(3)-log(5)) $$

                            Hint 1:




                            $$ lim_{ntoinfty} exp(logbigg(sqrt[n]{frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}}bigg))=lim_{ntoinfty} exp(frac{logbigg(frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}bigg)}{n})$$




                            Hint 2:




                            $$ lim_{ntoinfty} exp(frac{logbigg(frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}bigg)}{n})=expbigg(lim_{ntoinfty} frac{logbigg(frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}bigg)}{n}bigg)$$

                            Hint 4:




                            Divide both sides with 15^n




                            Hint 5:




                            $lim_{ntoinfty}frac{a}{b} = 0$ for $a<b$




                            Hint 6:




                            $$expbigg(lim_{ntoinfty} frac{logbigg(frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}bigg)}{n}bigg) = exp(log(3)-log(5)) $$

                            Original answer



                            Try starting with this
                            $$
                            lim_{ntoinfty} sqrt[n]{frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}} = lim_{ntoinfty} exp(logbigg(sqrt[n]{frac{2^n+3^n}{3^n+5^n}}bigg))
                            $$
