English term or phrase: ... lead for r < k < r + Q to
Complete phrase:

"Substitution of the product form (4.2.3.23) in the equations (4.2.3.21) and (4.2.3.22) and cancellation of (k) lead for r < k < r + Q to
g(x; y)(1(1 􀀀 x) + 2(1 􀀀 y) + )"

Shouldn't it be rather: "... for r< k < r + Q lead to .."

or is this how mathematicians communicate?
