This common question is ambiguous and needs more detail. Variations of the answer with explanations are below.
[Literal Sense]
1 is the answer because the actual number '6' (by itself) only occurs once.
[The Digit 6]
20 is the answer because, the digit 6 appears 20 times in this example:
6, 16, 26, 36, 46, 56, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 76, 86, 96
[The Number 6]
10 is the answer.
These would be the numbers in which '6' occurs:
6, 16, 26, 36, 46, 56, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 76, 86, 96
This is because one does not count the digits that represent values other than 6 (i.e. 60, 600, 6000, etc.). So, in this case, the digits with a strikethrough are uncounted. Simply, 6's are only counted in the ones place value.

You have to find out how many 6s go into 100 evenly so 100/6=16 with a remainder of 4 so you will pass by 16 6s
you will pass only 19 6's if you count from 1 to 100Twenty sixes, below you can see the list: 66 has been written twice because there are two sixes.616263646566061626364656666676869768696
None of them. The correct answer is 20. There are 2 sixes in 66.
The sixes between 1 and 100 are:6162636465660616263646566676869768696Therefore, there are 20 digit sixes between 1 and 100.
The sixes you will pass are at:6 16 26 36 46 56 60 61 62 63 64 65 66 67 68 69 76 86 96This is a total of 20 digit sixes.
