Question

The following is written in my mathematical proofs book

"Z4 consists of the four classes (sets of integers)
[0],[1],[2],[3], where for r ∈ {0, 1, 2, 3}, [r] = {3q + r : q ∈ Z}"

Im confused on why it's 3q+r and not 4q+r, I know there is a general rule but i cannot find it, I know why it consists of 4 classes, but somehow i dont get the "{3q + r : q ∈ Z}" part, please explain step by step.

Z4 of integers modulo 4. Recall that Z4 consists of the four classes (sets of integers)
[0], [1], [2], [3], where for r = {0, 1, 2, 3}, [r] = {3q + r : q € Z}. Furthermore, if a, b = [r]
for some r with 0 ≤ r ≤ 3, then [a] = [b] and a = b (mod 4).
