To prove $\lim_{x\to 0} x\sin(\frac{1}{x})=0$ I tried sandwich theorem but I have no clear idea to prove the problem

The sine of every real number is between $-1$ and $1$. Therefore $x \cdot \sin(1/x)$ is between $x\cdot(\pm1) = \pm x.$ And $+x$ and $-x$ both approach the same limit as $x\to0$.

$-|x| \leq x\sin(\frac{1}{x}) \leq |x| $. Hence
$\lim_{x \rightarrow 0} -|x| = 0 \leq \lim_{x \rightarrow 0} x\sin(\frac{1}{x})\leq \lim_{x \rightarrow 0}|x| =0 $.
Therefore,$ \lim_{x \rightarrow 0}x\sin(\frac{1}{x})=0 $ by squeezed theorem.
