Evaluate the limit by first recognizing the sum as a Riemann Sum for a function defined on $[0,1]$.

Evaluate the limit by first recognizing the sum as a Riemann Sum for a function defined on $[0,1]$
$$
limlimits_{n to infty} sumlimits_{i=1}^{n} left(frac{i^5}{n^6}+frac{i}{n^2}right).
$$



I understand how to do a Riemann Sum but am not sure how to find f(x) from the limit.



I apologize for any errors in the way I've posted this. This is my first question on here so I don't quite know the swing of things yet.
Thanks everyone for your help!

          If you pull out $frac{1}{n}$ you get
          $$
          frac{1}{n}sum_{i = 1}^{n} left[left(frac{i}{n}right)^5 + left(frac{i}{n}right)right],
          $$

          which is a Riemann sum for the function $f(x)=x^5+x$ on the interval $[0,1]$.
          Your limit thus equals
          $$
          intlimits_0^1(x^5+x)dx
          = left[ frac{x^6}{6} + frac{x^2}{2} right]_{x = 0}^{1}
          = frac{1}{6} + frac{1}{2}
          = frac{2}{3}.
          $$
