    b = 10

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Solve for b:

    46 + 5 = 5 b + 1

    46 + 5 = 51:

    51 = 5 b + 1

    51 = 5 b + 1 is equivalent to 5 b + 1 = 51:

    5 b + 1 = 51

    Subtract 1 from both sides:

    5 b + (1 - 1) = 51 - 1

    1 - 1 = 0:

    5 b = 51 - 1

    51 - 1 = 50:

    5 b = 50

    Divide both sides of 5 b = 50 by 5:

    (5 b) / 5 = 50/5

    5/5 = 1:

    b = 50/5

    The gcd of 50 and 5 is 5, so 50/5 = (5*10) / (5*1) = 5/5*10 = 10:

    Answer: b = 10
