👉 Learn how to divide polynomials using the long division algorithm. To be able to solve a polynomial, we need to be able to get the factors and hence the zeros. To get the factors, we use the ...

Adding to his extensive collection of simple but effective and clear math apps, Esa Helttula has now introduced Polynomial Long Division. Most of Esa's previous apps have been about arithmetic, ...

👉 Learn about dividing by synthetic division. Synthetic division is a method of dividing polynomials by linear expressions. To divide using synthetic division, we equate the divisor to 0 and then ...

If \((x \pm h)\) is a factor of a polynomial, then the remainder will be zero. Conversely, if the remainder is zero, then \((x \pm h)\) is a factor. Often ...

Synthetic division is another, easier, way of carrying out division of polynomials. Look at how it would work for the example above before moving on to an explanation of the process.
