This is a very good question, there isn't really much i would change just a few minor things.

Advice

a) You don't need the "first" in the first sentence here as there is only one column for Sweet Heaven.

When you say "Similarly for Tasty Hell:" i think the colon should just be a comma but i'm not 100% sure.

b) You could maybe split up this paragraph by starting a new line after each sentence, but it's up to you.

Saved a checkpoint:

Can we assume that the students have already seen long division of numbers?

I've rewritten the statement a bit. 

"We then repeat these same steps with the new polynomial until we are only left with an integer. " isn't strictly true - the remainder is a polynomial of lower degree than the divisor.

I reckon the statement text is better off in the advice.

The advice is quite lengthy, but I don't know if it's possible to do any better.

This looks like a good question i just have a few comments.

In the statement you might need to have a comma after you state the first law of logarithms.

Main Parts

a) good

b) are you wanting the student to input their answer as a simplified fraction or just any fraction? you might need to put in a precision restriction.

Advice

a) i) good, just a typo "subsituting" should be "substituting".

a) ii) same typo as in a) i) 

I think the have typed up the wrong questions for the advice here, i'm not sure where the a) ii) part fits in

I think the advice for a) iii) is meant to be for question a) ii) but the numbers here aren't the same as in the question.

Also you have two a) iii)s in the advice, but there are only two questions in part a) in the actual question.

b) i) you might need a full stop after the first line of maths here.

b) ii) again you might need a full stop after the first line of maths.

One of the logs here is in italics as well whereas the others aren't.

Also the final answer in the advice here is not given as a simplified fraction.

Thank you for the advice. I started with one part, you asked for two and now you've got 3.  I did forget to mention that they were super delux sweets, however I have altered them to packets for clarity sake. I have also followed through with the other suggestions you've made.

And like the other sequences questions, the advice would benefit hugely from a table.
