Question

Divide the binomial by the monomial. Write the quotient and the remainder.

(7) 24m⁴ – 16m²; 8m

Answer 1

(24m⁴ – 16m² ) ÷ 8m can be shown as:

$$\begin{gathered} 3m^3-2m \\ 8m\overline{)24m^4-16m^2} \\ \underline{-24m^4} \\ 0-16m^2 \\ -16m^2 \\ \underline{+} \\ \underline{0} \end{gathered}$$

So, the quotient of the division is 3m³ – 2m and the remainder is 0
