Answer 2

z

Answer 3

how many

Answer 4

how many times can A go into 2A^2 ?

Answer 5

4 times?

Answer 6

No, It goes in 2A times.

2a * a = 2a^2

Answer 7

So, you write in 2a at the top, like so: And multiply (a-1) by 2a, like so:

Answer 8

Then, subtract *2a^2* from *2a^2 +a +3

Answer 9

Are you following me?

Answer 10

anyway, a goes into 3a, three times:

Hence, multiply the divisor by 3 and subtract from the remainder left over from the last operation. Add 3 to the top line as you multiplied the divisor by +3.

You're left with 6 as a remainder.

Answer 11

You can't divide the remainder further. When this is the case the resultant fraction is the remainder over the divisor. ex: the numerator is the remainder, and the divisor is the denominator.

The answer is:

2a +3

Remainder: 6/a-1

(Apologies, I wrote -1 instead of -3.)

remainder: 6/ (a-1)
