so I have a question. If we consider an enumeration of the rationals in $[0,1]$ $mathbbQ = q_1,q_2,...,q_n$ and we define $U_n,epsilon = ]q_n-epsilon/2^n, q_n + epsilon/2^n[$,



$U_epsilon = bigcuplimits_n=1^infty U_n,epsilon$



And this set won't be Jordan-Measurable at least when $epsilon $ is lower than $1/2$. My question is why it isn't possible to construct a sequence of elementary sets $K_N, U_N$ such that $K_N subseteq U_epsilon subseteq U_N$ and the content of $U_N-K_N$ goes to zero? Why doesn't making $K_N=bigcuplimits_n=1^N U_n,epsilon$ and $U_N = K_N bigcup [q_N,1]$ work? Why doesn't the limit tend to zero?
