x = 3a +1
x = 7b +3
Combine the two:
x = 21c + 4

Now we want to know the numbers that satisfy the equation between 206 and 258:

206 < 21c + 4 <258
202 < 21c < 254

3 values of c satisfy the equation.

==> D
­Idea is correct, but that is not how we combine two of them.
x=3a+1 = (1,4,7,10,....)
x=7b+3 = (3,10,...)
Combining:
LCM(3,7)*c + 1st common term
x = 21c + 10

Then, find x between 206 & 254,
we will get 220 & 241.
Therefore, 2 values
==> C is correct.­
