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

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