In the figure above, the point on

Since m=1, (so the angle created between the line and x-axis is 45º), and crossing through a value in X which is an integer, for each value of X, there will be an integer value for Y. Please note that (Y = X - 1)

twice as far from P as from Q --> 2/3 of the total distance in X will lead a corresponding integer value for Y.

X = 2/3 * 3 = 2

Y = 2 - 1
Y = 1

SOL: (2,1)
