Question

Divide and write the quotient and remainder.

(2) (2n² – 12n + 8) ÷ 2n

Answer 1

(2n² – 12n + 8 ) ÷ 2n can be shown as:

$$\begin{gathered} n-6 \\ 2n\overline{)2n^2-12n+8} \\ \underline{-2n^2} \\ 0-12n \\ -12n \\ \underline{+} \\ +8 \end{gathered}$$

So, the quotient of the division is n – 6 and the remainder is 0.
