How many integers from 0 to 50, inclusive, have a remainder of 1 when divided by 3 ? You need to think in that way , k=3a+1 so try few numbers to find how the sequance behave .. K= 3*0+1 -------> 1 K=3*1+1 --------> 4 K=3*2+1 --------> 7 K=3*3+1 --------> 10 K=3*4+1 --------> 13 so you can see that ...

I think we can make it shorter : We know that I=S+E1 I=income , S =saving ,E1=Expense first year E2=S(1+r) E2 = Expense year 2 and we need that E2=(1/2)E1 so S(1+r)=(1/2)(I-S) --> S(1+r)+(1/2)S = (1/2) I ---> S(1+r+(1/2))=(1/2)I ---> (2+2r+1)=I/S--> 2r+3= I/S So S/I = 1/ (2r+3 ) Answer E
