How does f ( n r ) come and how do we convert the sum into integration? @Rishabh Cool

hat's why you need to read the page of Reimann sums mentioned in the solution...

Let's multiply the expression by n 1 n 1 ⋅ n 1 , we have
n 1 + n 2 + ⋯ + n n ( n 1 + n 2 + ⋯ + n n ) ( 1 n 1 + 2 n 1 + ⋯ + n ⋅ n 1 )
Let A n and B n denote the expressions, respectively, inside the first and second brackets in the numerator of the fraction above. Similarly, let C n denote the expression in the denominator of the fraction above.
So we want to evaluate n → ∞ lim C n A n B n , and if the limits A n , B n , C n are all finite values, then n → ∞ lim C n A n B n = ( n → ∞ lim A n ) × ( n → ∞ lim B n ) ÷ ( n → ∞ lim C n ) is true.
Let's evaluate the limits of A n , B n and C n separately.
Since A n , B n and C n can be expressed in the form of n 1 r = 1 ∑ ∞ f ( n r ) for some function f ( x ) , then we can evaluate all these limits by Riemann sums .
Thus,
n → ∞ lim A n = n → ∞ lim ( n 1 + n 2 + ⋯ + n n ) = ∫ 0 1 x 1 / 2 d x = 1 + 2 1 1 x 3 / 2 ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ x = 0 x = 1 = 3 2 .
n → ∞ lim B n = n → ∞ lim ( 1 n 1 + 2 n 1 + ⋯ + n ⋅ n 1 ) = ∫ 0 1 x − 1 / 2 d x = 1 − 2 1 1 x 1 / 2 ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ x = 0 x = 1 = 2 .
n → ∞ lim C n = n → ∞ lim ( n 1 + n 2 + ⋯ + n n ) = ∫ 0 1 x d x = 1 + 1 1 x 2 ∣ ∣ ∣ ∣ x = 0 x = 1 = 2 1 .
Since we have shown that the limits A n , B n , C n are all non-zero finite values, then n → ∞ lim C n A n B n = ( n → ∞ lim A n ) × ( n → ∞ lim B n ) ÷ ( n → ∞ lim C n ) is indeed true.
Hence our answer is just 2 1 3 2 ⋅ 2 = 3 8 .
