1Welcome to [math.se] SE. Take a [tour]. You'll find that simple "Here's the statement of my question, solve it for me" posts will be poorly received. What is better is for you to add context (with an [edit]): What you understand about the problem, what you've tried so far, etc.; something both to show you are part of the learning experience and to help us guide you to the appropriate help. You can consult this link for further guidance. – Another User Mar 10 '23 at 17:22

Let $\{x_n\}\subset E$ be a bounded sequence, i.e. $\|x_n\|\le M$, for some $M>0$.
Then set $\varphi_n \in E^{**}$, defined as $$ \varphi_n(x^*)=x^*(x_n), \quad x^*\in E^*. $$ Then, for $\|x^*\|_*=1$ we have $$ |\varphi_n(x^*)|=|x^*(x_n)|\le \|x^*\|_*\|x_n\|=\|x_n\|\le M. $$ Then $\|\varphi_n\|\le M$, for all $n\in\mathbb N$.
