The aim of the paper is to compare the rates of convergence of quadrature processes. The author gives some representation formulas for the remainders of one process in terms of a second one. For instance, let \(R_ n^{tr}(f)\), \(R_ n^{Si}(f)\), \(R_ n^{mi}(f)\) denote the remainders in the (n-fold compound) trapezoidal, Simpson, and midpoint rule, respectively, Let R[0,1] be the linear space of all Riemann integrable functions on [0,1]. If f belongs to a certain subspace of R[0,1], then it is shown that \(R_ n^{tr}(f)=- 3\sum^{\infty}_{k=0}4^ k\cdot R^{Si}_{n2^ k}(f).\) The following results are also established: (I) Let \(\delta >1\), \(f\in R[0,1]\) and \(R_ n^{tr}(f)=o(n^{-1})\) for \(n\to \infty\). Then (*) \(R_ n^{tr}(f)=O(n^{-\delta})\), \(R_ n^{mi}(f)=O(n^{-\delta})\), \(n\to \infty\). (II) When \(\delta\in [0,1)\) and \(f\in R[0,1]\), (*) is true for the subsequence \(n=2^ m\), \(m\to \infty\). In the proofs, the main tool is the Möbius inversion.
