If one root of a cubic is known (and verified), then we can do a synthetic division and factor the remaining quadratic expression.

f(x)=x^3+x^2-22x-40
f(5)=125+25-22(5)-40=0  so x-5 is a factor

Now do the synthetic division

  5  |  +1 +1 -22 -40
      --------------------
           1  6    8    0

The resulting quadratic is x^2+6x+8 which can be factored into
(x+2)(x+4)

The complete factorization is therefore
f(x)=<span>x³ + x² - 22x - 40 = (x-5)(x+2)(x+4)</span>

1 loaf of bread uses 2/3 of a cup of flour.
12 cups of flour x 2/3 = 12/1 x 2/3 = 24/3 = 8 loafs of bread
