Abstract
For a sequence of integers such that , for , let denote the number of partitions of into parts of the form . In this paper we show that for every positive integer the following congruence is true: \begin{align*} p_{M}(m_{1}m_{2}\cdots m_{r}n-1)\equiv 0\ \ \left({\rm mod}\ \prod_{t=2}^{r}\mathcal{M}(m_{t},t-1)\right), \end{align*} where . Our result answers a conjecture posed by Folsom, Homma, Ryu and Tong, and is a generalisation of the congruence relations for -ary partitions found by Andrews, Gupta, and R{\o}dseth and Sellers.
