Pre-Algebra Examples

Divide (6x+5)/(2x-7)
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
The final answer is the quotient plus the remainder over the divisor.
