From x − 1 < = ⌊ x ⌋ < = x , we have − n 2 1 + n 1 ∑ k = 1 n n 2 k 2 ( sin x ) x < = n 3 1 ∑ k = 1 n ⌊ k 2 ( sin x ) x ⌋ < = n 1 ∑ k = 1 n n 2 k 2 ( sin x ) x . As n → ∞ , using the squeeze theorem gives lim n → ∞ n 3 1 ∑ k = 1 n ⌊ k 2 ( sin x ) x ⌋ = ( sin x ) x ∫ 0 1 t 2 d t = 3 ( sin x ) x .
Hence, the given limit is simplified to lim x → 0 + { 3 ( sin x ) x } = { 3 1 } = 3 1 .

We know 0 < sin ( x ) < 1 in the interval ( 0 , ε ) for very very small positive ε
So 0 < ( sin ( x ) ) x < 1 in the interval ( 0 , ε ) .
We know x → 0 + lim ( sin ( x ) ) x = 1 we can prove it using the L'Hospital's Rule .
x → 0 + lim ( sin ( x ) ) x = exp ( x → 0 + lim x 1 ln ( sin ( x ) ) ) = exp ( x → 0 + lim − x ⋅ sin ( x ) x ⋅ cos ( x ) ) = exp ( 0 ) = 1
But the point is that it approaches 1 form below . That is as x becomes smaller and smaller and goes closer and closer to 0 ( sin ( x ) ) x goes closer and closer to 1 but is always lesser than 1 .
Here is a graph showing that:-
So x → 0 + lim ⌊ r 2 ( sin ( x ) ) x ⌋ = r 2 − 1 . ( Note here that the limit x → 0 + can be taken inside the fractional part function because the fractional part function is a monotonic increasing and continuous function in the interval ( 0 , ε ) , where 0 < ε < 1 .
This is happening becasue r 2 ( sin ( x ) ) x becomes closer and closer to r 2 but does not reach it. It attains a value really really close to r 2 but it still is lesser than r 2 . So the floor of it would spit out the integer just lesser than r 2 which is r 2 − 1
So our limit becomes { n → ∞ lim n 3 ∑ r = 1 n r 2 − 1 } = { n → ∞ lim n 3 6 n ( n + 1 ) ( 2 n + 1 ) − n } = { 3 1 } = 3 1 ≈ 0 . 3 3 3
