Short Problem Definition:
Little Bob loves chocolates, and goes to a store with $N in his pocket. The price of each chocolate is $C. The store offers a discount: for every M wrappers he gives to the store, he gets one chocolate for free. How many chocolates does Bob get to eat?

Complexity:
time complexity is O(N);
space complexity is O(1)
