For , let be the unique index such that . Then and . The chosen interval is open on the left and closed on the right, soThis remains correct at dyadic endpoints; changing it to a floor approximation with a non-strict left endpoint would describe a different approximation.
By part (iii), define the finite limit for every . Part (a) makes this limit Borel measurable. Letting in the displayed error bound givesThis is the factorization conclusion of the Doob-Dynkin lemma under the specified Borel-image hypothesis.
