Question

.
How do we write simple expressions using long & synthetic division?

Explain

Answer 1

For not exact divisions: Writing the results as Quotient + Remainder over the Divisor.

For exact division: just the quotient.

Explanation:

Hi there,

In both algorithms, for long and synthetic divisions we must write the result as an expression following that order:

`Dividend: Divisor=Qx+(Rx)/(Dx)`

When the Division leaves no Remainder, i.e. an exact, the Remainder is equal to zero, so

`Dividend: Divisor=Qx`

Check below for the algorithms for each division and the way of writing their expressions (results).
