Unofficial problem statement: Find the number of positive integers from 1 to 1000 that have different mods in mod 2,3,4,5, and 6.
  
Unofficial Solution: We realize that any such number (mod 2) and (mod 4) must have the same parity, and its values (mod 3) and (mod 6) must have a absolute value difference of 3. Thus the only possibilities for the sequence of mods are 1,2,3,4,5 1,2,3,0,5 and (insert another one). Using CRT and summing we get 049.

Unofficial problem statement: Find the number of positive integers from 1 to 1000 that have different mods in mod 2,3,4,5, and 6.

Unofficial Solution: We realize that any such number (mod 2) and (mod 4) must have the same parity, and its values (mod 3) and (mod 6) must have a absolute value difference of 3. Thus the only possibilities for the sequence of mods are 1,2,3,4,5 1,2,3,0,5 and 0,1,2,3,4. Using CRT and summing we get 049.
