Question

How do we divide using long division?? (Explain plz)

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Make sure the polynomial is written in descending order. If any terms are missing, use a zero to fill in the missing term (this will help with the spacing).

Step 2: Divide the term with the highest power inside the division symbol by the term with the highest power outside the division symbol.

Step 3: Multiply (or distribute) the answer obtained in the previous step by the polynomial in front of the division symbol.

Step 4: Subtract and bring down the next term.

Step 5: Repeat Steps 2, 3, and 4 until there are no more terms to bring down.

Step 6: Write the final answer. The term remaining after the last subtract step is the remainder and must be written as a fraction in the final answer.
