In what bases, b, does (b + 10) divide into (8b + 10) without any remainder?

Well if everything is in base b then we have

b+10=2b  (any base)

8b+10=9b (any base)

9b/2b= 4.5  

So I am reasonably sure there will be a remainder in any base.

-------------

I suspect the tens in the question are actually meant to be in base 10

in which case guests answer of base 4 does work.   Thanks guest for your answer 

If b=4 then you have

\(\frac{8b+10}{b+10}_{base\;10}=\frac{8*4+10}{4+10}_{base\;10}=\frac{42}{14}_{base\;10}=3_{Any\;base\;4\; or\; more }\)

I do not agree that these are year 5 or 6 questions. They are certainly year 7 questions.

However you have lodged a formal complaint saying that guest has called you 'dumb'

The response has not been edited and the word 'dumb' is definitely not included.

I do not think that you are being bullied.

ElectricPavlov answered your question last time.

this was your response

   "Im only in year 7 leve me alone "

Do you think this was a polite or helpful response?  I most definitely do not.

What you should have said it "Thanks very much but I really still do not understand"

I do not think that guests response is particularly rude. 

But I do think your response to Electric Pavlov was rude and immature.

If you are in year 7 then it is reasonable that you are immature but that does not forgive rudeness.

NOW many of the questions above are similar.

Ask one question at a time and try and learn from the answer before you post your next question.

Interact with your answerers, they like that, they will put effort into explaining exactly what you do not understand.

Are those expressions in base b or in base 10?

If it is in base b then b=10 so    b+10 = 2*b base b 

and 8b+10 = 8b+b = 9b base b

But if the expressions are in base 10 then  b+10 = 10+b base 10

and   8b+10 = 10+8b base 10

 So which is it?

Just because it indicates that he is answering does not mean that he is actually doing so. He could be sleeping or reading or whatever.

So I expect he is totally fine :)

Yes that works too. Thanks EP

the question is asking you where B will go when the triangle is rotated into the new position.

where do you think it will go. ?

And you would be correct :)

You have edited this question twice but you do not appear to have proofread it.

1.   If WHAT is a root?

Good one !    

What is the largest seven-digit number divisible by 44 that can be formed by the digits 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 7, and 8 each used exactly once?

Well it must be divisible by 4 which means the last two digits must be divisible by 4

So it could end in 12, 16, 24, 28, 32, 36, 48, 64, 68, 72, 76, 84,

And

It must be divisible by 11
