Its very simple... See by observing that in 2x+3y=100 2x is always even and 100 is also even so u need to have 3y also positive. so within 100 3 can be multiplied by 100/33 times to get an even number. So (b) 33 is the answer.

private int Validate(int num, int X, int Y) { int temp=0,count=0,counter=Y; while(counter <= num) { temp = num - counter; if(temp % X==0) { count = count + 1; } counter = counter + Y; } return count; } }Use this simple snipet to find for any such equation.Here X=2, Y=3, num=100;will give 16

there is a simple way to answer this kind of Q's given 2x+3y=100, take l.c.m of 'x' coeff and 'y' coeff i.e. l.c.m of 2,3 ==6then divide 100 with 6 , which turns out 16 hence answer is 16short cut formula--- constant / (l.cm of x coeff and y coeff)

2x+3y=100

x =50-3y/2

put y=2z ... z is +ve integer..so y will b +ve and integer

x=50-3z, x >0 ,so 50-3z>0
z<50/3... z<16.1

s0 z=0,1,2,.....,16
totaly 17 solution ...
