The main trick in this question is to use L'Hospital's Rule and Newton-Leibniz Formula.

The given limit is :- lim n n 2 n n 3 x x 5 + 1 . d x \lim_{n\to\infty} \int_{n}^{2n} \dfrac{n^{3}x}{x^{5}+1}.dx It can be written as:- lim n n 2 n x x 5 + 1 . d x 1 n 3 \lim_{n\to\infty} \dfrac{\int_{n}^{2n} \dfrac{x}{x^{5}+1}.dx}{\dfrac{1}{n^{3}}} Now we can apply L'Hospital's Rule and Newton-Leibniz Formula:- lim n 2 n × 2 ( 2 n ) 5 + 1 n n 5 + 1 3 n 4 \lim_{n\to\infty} \dfrac{\dfrac{2n\times 2}{(2n)^{5}+1}-\dfrac{n}{n^{5}+1}}{\dfrac{-3}{n^{4}}} We can evaluate this limit and it comes out to be 7 24 \boxed{\dfrac{7}{24}} .

nice solution :)

Just for a change

n 2 n n 3 x x 5 + 1 d x = n . 1 2 n 3 . ( n x ) ( n x ) 5 + 1 d x \displaystyle \int_n^{2n} \dfrac{n^3x}{x^5 + 1} dx = n.\int_1^2 \dfrac{n^3.(nx)}{(nx)^5 + 1} dx

I call this time saving property(its general substitution), if you divide a factor(here n) in limits replace x with nx & one n outside it.

Our integral reduces to

lim n 1 2 n 5 x n 5 . x 5 + 1 d x \displaystyle \lim_{n \to \infty } \int_1^2 \dfrac{n^5x}{n^5.x^5 +1} dx

Divide by n 5 n^5 and applying limit to get

1 2 1 x 4 d x = 7 24 \displaystyle \int_1^2 \dfrac{1}{x^4} dx = \dfrac{7}{24} .
