Mass Problem
Let G be a rectangular box with faces parallel to the three coordinate
planes, that is,

Mass Problem
Partition G into subboxes by dividing
[a, b] into l subintervals [xi−1 , xi ], each of length ∆x,
[c, d] into m subintervals [yj−1 , yj ], each of length ∆y , and
[r, s] into n subintervals [zk−1 , zk ], each of length ∆z ,
i = 1, 2, . . . , l, j = 1, 2, . . . , m, and k = 1, 2, . . . , n.
