Question

What is the quotient in polynomial form ?

Answer 1

Any quotient of polynomials a(x)/b(x) can be written as q(x)+r(x)/b(x), where the degree of r(x) is less than the degree of b(x). For example, (x²-3x+5)/(x-1) can be written as x-2+3/(x-1). This latter form can be more useful for many problems that involve polynomials.
