Question
What will the quotient and remainder be on division of ax2 + bx + c by px3 + qx2 + rx + s, p ≠ 0?
Solution
Degree of the polynomial px3 + qx2 + rx + s is 3
Degree of the polynomial ax2 + bx + c is 2
Here, degree of px3 + qx2 + rx + s is greater than degree of the ax2 + bx + c
Therefore, the quotient would be zero
And the remainder would be the dividend = ax2 + bx + c.
