Rewrite the expression in long division form.
The expression in long division form
Use division to rewrite the division so it. has a first coefficient of 1.
\Divide the numerator and denominator by 3.
\
Simplify the numerator and denominator.
\Coefficients of the dividend are .
The divisor is . Therefore constant r of the divisor is:
Write the terms of the dividend so that the degrees of the terms are in descending
\order. Then write just the coefficients as shown below.
\Bring down the first coefficient.
\Multiply the first coefficient by .
Write the product under the second coefficient.
\Then add the product and the second coefficient: 3 + 2 = 1.
\Multiply the sum 1, by r: Write the product under
the next coefficient.
\Then add the product and last coefficient:
The remainder is the last entry in the last row. Therefore, R = 0.
\The numbers along the bottem row are the coefficients of the auotient.
\Start with the power of y that is one less than the degree of the divided.
\Thus, the auotient is 3b + 5.
\The result of division is .
The result of division is .
