I) x=n+f     0≤f<1/3    n∈Z  ⇒A=[x]+[2x]+[3x]=n+2n+3n=1  ⇒n=(1/6)∉Z ⇒ without answer  II)x=n+f       1/3≤f<1/2  ⇒A=n+2n+(3n+1)=1 ⇒n=0  III)x=n+f    1/2≤f<2  A=n+(2n+1)+(3n+1)=1  ⇒n=−(1/6)∉Z ⇒ without answer  IV)x=n+f    2/3≤f<1  A=n+(2n+1)+(3n+2)=1 ⇒   ⇒n=−(1/3)∉Z ⇒ without answer  ⇒A=1⇒ x∈[1/3,1/2)

x=n+f  1=6n+⌊2f⌋+⌊3f⌋≥6n  ⇒n≤(1/6) ⇒n≤0  1=6n+⌊2f⌋+⌊3f⌋<6n+5  ⇒n>−(2/3) ⇒n≥0  ⇒n=0  ⌊2f⌋+⌊3f⌋=1  ⇒3f≥1, 2f<1  ⇒(1/3)≤f<(1/2)  ⇒(1/3)≤x<(1/2)

$${x}={n}+{f} \\ $$$$\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{6}{n}+\lfloor\mathrm{2}{f}\rfloor+\lfloor\mathrm{3}{f}\rfloor\geqslant\mathrm{6}{n} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{n}\leqslant\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{6}}\:\Rightarrow{n}\leqslant\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\mathrm{1}=\mathrm{6}{n}+\lfloor\mathrm{2}{f}\rfloor+\lfloor\mathrm{3}{f}\rfloor<\mathrm{6}{n}+\mathrm{5} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{n}>−\frac{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{3}}\:\Rightarrow{n}\geqslant\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow{n}=\mathrm{0} \\ $$$$\lfloor\mathrm{2}{f}\rfloor+\lfloor\mathrm{3}{f}\rfloor=\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\mathrm{3}{f}\geqslant\mathrm{1},\:\mathrm{2}{f}<\mathrm{1} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}\leqslant{f}<\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$$$\Rightarrow\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}\leqslant{x}<\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$

in line 7 :  [2f]+[3f]=1 ⇒[ 0≤f<1 ⇒ 2f≤3f ] ⇒  2f<1    3f≥1 ⇒ (1/3)≤f<(1/2)

$${in}\:{line}\:\mathrm{7}\:: \\ $$$$\left[\mathrm{2}{f}\right]+\left[\mathrm{3}{f}\right]=\mathrm{1}\:\Rightarrow\left[\:\mathrm{0}\leqslant{f}<\mathrm{1}\:\Rightarrow\:\mathrm{2}{f}\leqslant\mathrm{3}{f}\:\right]\:\Rightarrow \\ $$$$\mathrm{2}{f}<\mathrm{1}\:\:\:\:\mathrm{3}{f}\geqslant\mathrm{1}\:\Rightarrow\:\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{3}}\leqslant{f}<\frac{\mathrm{1}}{\mathrm{2}} \\ $$
