Answer:

HCF(Highest Common Factor) OF ALGEBRAIC EXPRESSIONS BY DIVISION METHOD

Explanation:

Our steps will be as following:

Step 1- Let " f(x) " and " g(x) " be the given polynomials. First, divide f(x) by g(x) to obtain, f(x) = g(x) x q(x) + r (x)

Step 2- If the remainder r(x) is not zero, then divide g(x) by r(x) to obtain g(x) = r(x) x q(x) + r₁ (x).

Step 3- If it is not zero, then continue the process until we get zero as the remainder.
