$\frac{v^{3} - 17 v^{2} + 66 v + 32}{v - 10}$

Step 1

Set up the polynomials to be divided. If there is not a term for every exponent, insert one with a value of $0$ .

$v$

$10$

$v^{3}$

$17 v^{2}$

$66 v$

$32$

Step 2

Divide the highest order term in the dividend $v^{3}$ by the highest order term in divisor $v$ .

					$v^{2}$
	$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$

Step 3

Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.

				$v^{2}$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			+	$v^{3}$	-	$10 v^{2}$

Step 4

The expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in $v^{3} - 10 v^{2}$

				$v^{2}$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$

Step 5

After changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find the new dividend.

				$v^{2}$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$

Step 6

Pull the next terms from the original dividend down into the current dividend.

				$v^{2}$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$

Step 7

Divide the highest order term in the dividend $- 7 v^{2}$ by the highest order term in divisor $v$ .

				$v^{2}$	-	$7 v$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$

Step 8

Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.

				$v^{2}$	-	$7 v$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$70 v$

Step 9

The expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in $- 7 v^{2} + 70 v$

				$v^{2}$	-	$7 v$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$
					+	$7 v^{2}$	-	$70 v$

Step 10

After changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find the new dividend.

				$v^{2}$	-	$7 v$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$
					+	$7 v^{2}$	-	$70 v$
							-	$4 v$

Step 11

Pull the next terms from the original dividend down into the current dividend.

				$v^{2}$	-	$7 v$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$
					+	$7 v^{2}$	-	$70 v$
							-	$4 v$	+	$32$

Step 12

Divide the highest order term in the dividend $- 4 v$ by the highest order term in divisor $v$ .

				$v^{2}$	-	$7 v$	-	$4$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$
					+	$7 v^{2}$	-	$70 v$
							-	$4 v$	+	$32$

Step 13

Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.

				$v^{2}$	-	$7 v$	-	$4$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$
					+	$7 v^{2}$	-	$70 v$
							-	$4 v$	+	$32$
							-	$4 v$	+	$40$

Step 14

The expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in $- 4 v + 40$

				$v^{2}$	-	$7 v$	-	$4$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$
					+	$7 v^{2}$	-	$70 v$
							-	$4 v$	+	$32$
							+	$4 v$	-	$40$

Step 15

After changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find the new dividend.

				$v^{2}$	-	$7 v$	-	$4$
$v$	-	$10$		$v^{3}$	-	$17 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$	+	$32$
			-	$v^{3}$	+	$10 v^{2}$
					-	$7 v^{2}$	+	$66 v$
					+	$7 v^{2}$	-	$70 v$
							-	$4 v$	+	$32$
							+	$4 v$	-	$40$
									-	$8$

Step 16

The final answer is the quotient plus the remainder over the divisor.

$v^{2} - 7 v - 4 - \frac{8}{v - 10}$
