Proposition: (Counting multiples of d between 1 and n) Suppose that $d \in \NN$ and $d \neq 0$. Suppose that $n \in \NN$ and $n \neq 0$. Let $S = \{1, \ldots, n \}$. Define $$S_d = \{ x \in S \mbox{ such that } x \mbox{ is a multiple of } d \}.$$ Then $$\vert S_d \vert = \lfloor \frac{n}{d} \rfloor.$$
