For some number to be divisible by 12 it has to be divisible by 6 and by 2.
we can write number n as:

n = 6 + 12*k where k is positive integer.
If we divide n by 12 we will get remainder 6 because 12*k part is divisible by 12.
The part 12*k is as said divisible by 12 which means it is divisible by 6 (as first stated) and it has remainder 0. That leaves us with 6/6 which again has 0 as remainder. That means that number n is divisible by 6

The answer is 0

The quotient of a trinomial and monomial can be 9x² +2x + 1 while the product of the polynomials x² + 2x + 1 and 3x² - 1 is 3x⁴ + 6x³ + 2x² - 2x - 1

<h3>The quotient of a trinomial and monomial</h3>

Let the variable be x.

Trinomial are polynomials that have three terms, while monomials have a single term.

Using the above definition, we have:

Trinomial = 9x³ + 2x² + x

Monomial = x

The quotient of the above is represented as:

$\frac{9x^3 +2x^2 + x}{x}$
