Question

solve

Answer 1

it means p(x)= f(x)*g(x)
where f(x) is a polymonial with degree >=1

Answer 2

if quotient is zero then g(x ) can be anything i guess

Answer 3

This can only happen if the degree of g(x) is greater than the degree of p(x), so the quotient will be zero, but there'll be a remainder.

Eg if you divide x+1 by x^2+1, the quotient is zero, the remainder is (x+1)/(x^2+1)

Answer 4

yeah right

Answer 5

i m confused

Answer 6

its quite simple u can get 0 quotient only if u divide a smaller number by a bigger number
similarly u get zero quotient only if ur polynomial g(x) has degree more than p(x)....
degree means power of x with most numbers

Answer 7

@msingh you have to remember this is using long division (or synthetic division).
