Well if anyone has read Apostol's vol 1. Can anyone explain in the beginingthe sum of the areas of the outer rectangles is (b^3/n^3)(k^2) or
(b^3/n^3)(1^2+2^2+3^2…+n^2)
And the area of the inner rectangles and (b^3/n^3)(1^2+2^2+3^2…+(n-1)^2)
What I would like to know is why does the value of k for the inner area sum goes to n-1
Thank you
