Let Ω denote the closed interval [0, 1] and let bA denote the set of all bounded, approximately continuous functions on Ω. Let Q denote the Banach space (sup norm) of quasi-continuous functions on Ω. Let M denote the closed convex cone in Q comprised of non-decreasing functions. Let hp, 1 < p < ∞, denote the best Lp-simultaneaous approximation to the bounded measurable functions f and g by elements of M. It is shown that if f and g are elements of Q, then hp converges unifornily to a best L1-simultaneous approximation of f and g. We also show that if f and g are in bA, then hp is continuous.
