Transcript of Concepts 1, 2, 3 5.3 Division of Polynomials. 5.3.1 Division by a Monomial Example:
What if you are dividing by a polynomial?The last method we did won’t work.
There are three ways to do this:LONG DIVISIONSYNTHETIC DIVISIONFACTORING (we will cover next week)
5.3.2 Long DivisionNumber example
