Answer:


\frac{16x^3+\text{ 2x-6}}{2x-1}=8x^2+4x+3-\text{ }(3)/(2x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to divide the polynomial by using the long division method

We set up the long division like we usually do

We put the dividend (numerator) inside the long division sign, then put the divisor( denominator) outside the sign to the left. Then we commence the division operation which is shown below:
