Correct answer: 3

  1. We are given f(x+y)=f(x)f(y)for all }x,y\in\mathbb R, with f(x)≠0f(x)\neq 0f(x)=0 for every x∈Rx\in\mathbb Rx∈R.

  2. Also, fff is differentiable at x=0x=0x=0 and f′(0)=3.f'(0)=3.f′(0)=3.

  3. We need to find lim⁡h→0f(h)−1h.\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{f(h)-1}{h}.limh→0​hf(h)−1​.

  4. But by the definition of derivative at x=0x=0x=0, f′(0)=lim⁡h→0f(0+h)−f(0)h.f'(0)=\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{f(0+h)-f(0)}{h}.f′(0)=limh→0​hf(0+h)−f(0)​. So we first need f(0)f(0)f(0).

  5. Put x=0x=0x=0 and y=0y=0y=0 in the functional equation: f(0)=f(0+0)=f(0)f(0)=f(0)2.f(0)=f(0+0)=f(0)f(0)=f(0)^2.f(0)=f(0+0)=f(0)f(0)=f(0)2. Hence, f(0)2−f(0)=0f(0)^2-f(0)=0f(0)2−f(0)=0 f(0)(f(0)−1)=0.f(0)(f(0)-1)=0.f(0)(f(0)−1)=0. Since f(0)≠0f(0)\neq 0f(0)=0, we must have f(0)=1.f(0)=1.f(0)=1.

  6. Therefore, f′(0)=lim⁡h→0f(h)−1h.f'(0)=\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{f(h)-1}{h}.f′(0)=limh→0​hf(h)−1​.

  7. Given that f′(0)=3f'(0)=3f′(0)=3, it follows directly that lim⁡h→0f(h)−1h=3.\lim_{h\to 0}\frac{f(h)-1}{h}=3.limh→0​hf(h)−1​=3.

Therefore, the required integer is 3.\boxed{3}.3​.
