 How many integers from 0 to 50, inclusive, have a remainder of 1 when divided by 3 ?

A. 15
B. 16
C. 17
D. 18
E. 19
Although there are different (and clever) ways to answer this question, I think the fastest (and most accurate) approach is to simply list the values in your head as you count on your fingers (or use a tally sheet)

We get: 1, 4, 7, 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25, 28, 31, 34, 37, 40, 43, 46, 49

Answer: C
