Show that N+ is continuous in probability, i.e. for any arbitrarily small € > 0, P{|N₁ − Ns| > ε } → 0, as s→ t. Hint. Use the stationary increments property (N₂ - N₁ ~ Nts if s≤t) and notice that Nu > ε is the same as Nu > 0 for small ε. (Why?)

Please help solve this question.  A hint to use within the work is provided. This is an ungraded lecture question that I would love to know how to do!

Show that N is continuous in probability, i.e. for any arbitrarily small € > 0,
P{|Nt — Ns| > ɛ} → 0, as s → t.
Hint. Use the stationary increments property (№ — N3 ~ №−s if s≤ t) and notice that N > ε is the
same as Nu > 0 for small ε. (Why?)
