COMMENTS
Let r = (1+sqrt(61))/6. Then (floor(n*r)) and (floor(n*r + 5r/3)) are a pair of Beatty sequences; i.e., every positive integer is in exactly one of the sequences. See the Guide to related sequences at A329825.
FORMULA
a(n) = floor(n*r), where r = (1+sqrt(61))/6.
MATHEMATICA
t = 5/3; r = Simplify[(2 - t + Sqrt[t^2 + 4])/2]; s = Simplify[r/(r - 1)];
