Code:
target = 100
target_2 = 100+1 #= 101

t1= target//3  #= 33.333333333333336
t2= target_2//3  #= 33.666666666666664

r= t1+t2 # = 67
---snipp---

t1 = t2 = 33
r will not result in 67 as you said, r=66

33.333333333333336+33.666666666666664 = 67
use 1 "/" symbol, 2 " //" is for rounding, sorry.
even if you run the script it gives you like

pk decimal=67

edit

and if you subtract 100-67= 33
you would get the division of 100/3 rounded to 33.

Unfortunately, this method does not work for all numbers:

target = 150
target_2 = 150+1 #= 151

t1= target/3 #= 50
t2= target_2/3 #= 50.333333333333336

r= t1+t2 # = 100.333333333333336
150 − 100.333333333333336 = 49.666666666666664

Why do you want to apply to a number that is division of 3? 150/3= 50
[/quote]

The number 150 for example.
I did not quite understand how this method will help in solving the puzzle if the "target" is unknown to us.
