After having proven that:

  • every Cauchy sequence is bounded
  • that for any positive real numbers $x$ and $y$ there is some natural number $k\in {\mathbb N}$ such that $kx > y$
  • that for any positive real number $x$ there is some rational number $b\in {\mathbb Q}$ such that $0 < b < x$
  • and the theorem that every Cauchy sequence of rational numbers $\{a_n\}_{n\in {\mathbb N}}$ is convergent in $\mathbb R$ with the limit $\lim_{n \rightarrow \infty} a_n = [(a_n)]$ where $[a_n]$ has been defined as the equivalence class of equivalent Cauchy sequences in the set of rational numbers i.e. $[(a_n)] = \{{b_n} \in A│{{b_n}} \sim {{a_n}}\}$, where $A$ is the set of all Cauchy sequences in $\mathbb Q$ and $a_n \in A$,

I am trying to next prove as a corollary that for a real number $[(a_n)]$ and a positive real number $\epsilon$ , there is a rational number $a$ such that $|[(a_n)] - a|<\epsilon$. Equivalent sequences are defined by $[{{a_n}}\sim {{b_n}}] \equiv [\lim(a_n - b_n) = 0]$ How do I prove this corollary from the previous propositions given?
