3. Prove that if \(\{a_n\}\) and \(\{b_n\}\) are Cauchy sequences of rational numbers satisfying

\[
\lim_{{n \to \infty}} |a_n - b_n| = 0
\]

and there exists \(c > 0\) so that

\[
|a_n| > c \quad \text{and} \quad |b_n| > c \quad \text{for all } n,
\]

then

\[
\lim_{{n \to \infty}} \left| \frac{1}{a_n} - \frac{1}{b_n} \right| = 0.
\]
