Abstract: Let $X_1,\mathrm{...},X_n$ be compact spaces and $X=X_{1}imes\mathrm{...}imes{X}_n.$ Consider the approximation of a function $finC(X)$ by sums $g_1(x_1)+\mathrm{...}{g}_n(x_n),$ where $g_{i}inC(X_i),$ $i=1,\mathrm{...},n.$ In [8], M.Golomb obtained a formula for the error of this approximation in terms of measures constructed on special points of $X$, called "projection cycles". However, his proof had a gap, which was pointed out by Marshall and O'Farrell [15]. But the question if the formula was correct, remained open. The purpose of the paper is to prove that Golomb's formula holds in a stronger form.
