To divide the polynomial
It is found that:
That is,
Given:
The dividend:
The divisor:
Set up:
Observe that
Thus, the problem can be viewed as that of dividing
Now, the zero of the divisor
The dividend
Thus, write it in the standard form at first:
Now, write the coefficients of the dividend, in order, in the dividend position.
Calculation:
Because the leading coefficient of the dividend must be the leading coefficient of the quotient, write
Multiply the zero of the divisor,
Add the next coefficient of the dividend with the product and record the sum below the line.
Repeat the process until the end.
Interpret:
The numbers below the line give the coefficients of the quotient and the remainder.
The first four numbers (
The last number
Thus, the quotient is
Conclusion:
It is found that
Thus, it is found that:
That is, it is found that:
That is,
