Move the digit, Change the base (Posted on 2022-04-19) Difficulty: 3 of 5
Find the smallest positive base 10 integer, for each of (a) through (d), (but with a 3-digit minimum), such that moving a digit is equivalent to changing the base from 10 to some other base which you must determine, according to one specific condition below:

(a) Moving a 6 from last digit to first changes from base 10 to a smaller base
(b) Moving a 3 from first digit to last changes from base 10 to a smaller base
(c) Moving a 2 from last digit to first changes from base 10 to a larger base
(d) Moving an 8 from first digit to last changes from base 10 to a larger base

Note: The new base may be different for each of (a) to (d)
