Written solution:
The remainders go in order 2,2, 4,4, 6,6, 1,1, 3,3, 5,5, 0,0, and then repeat.
All of the answer choices have 33 bars of height 33 and 44 bars of height 4.4.
So, we should pick the answer choice where the taller bars are on the first remainders to appear in our order, which are 2,2, 4,4, 6,6, and 1.1. That is option A.
