Line 113:
10<sup>0</sup> = 1 mod 7 = 1 -> possible sums: 1
10<sup>1</sup> = 1<sup>1</sup>0 = 10 mod 7 = 3 -> possible sums: 1, 3, 4
10<sup>2</sup> = 1<sup>21</sup>0<sup>3</sup>0 = 30 mod 7 = 2 -> possible sums: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6
where the additional superscripts are the carries as if I were back at school learning long division.
 
So the whole thing is:
1 -> -> 1
1<sup>1</sup>0 -> 3
Line 128:
1<sup>1</sup>0<sup>1</sup>0<sup>2</sup>0 -> 6
1<sup>1</sup>0<sup>1</sup>0<sup>2</sup>1 -> 70 Success this is divisible by 7.
Note that because (n mod 7) + (g mod 7) = (n+g) mod 7 I only need to calculate 100 mod 7 and I know say 110 mod 7 is (100 mod 7) + (10 mod 7) so I can calculate all possible sums by adding 100 mod 7 to the sums I already have in a modular way.

For very long B10 3/37 and 41/271 are often factors.

Hello Host.h, I do not understand everything above, but you seem to say, that a factor of 37 may be replaced by a factor 3... but I find:
# 57 = 19 * 3
B10( 57) = 11001 = n * 193
# 703 = 19 * 37
B10( 703) = 10100001 = n * 14367
what seems to be a (smallish) counter example (there are more). Did I get you wrong? --[[User:Heiner|Heiner]] ([[User talk:Heiner|talk]]) 18:12, 4 April 2020 (UTC)
