Divide Using Long Polynomial Division (27x^3+6ix^2+18x+4i)/(9x+2i)
Step 1
Set up the polynomials to be divided. If there is not a term for every exponent, insert one with a value of .
++++
Step 2
Divide the highest order term in the dividend by the highest order term in divisor .
++++
Step 3
Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.
++++
++
Step 4
The expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in
++++
--
Step 5
After changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find the new dividend.
++++

Step 6
Pull the next term from the original dividend down into the current dividend.
