Divide Using Long Polynomial Division Use the long division method to find the result when 12x^3+17x^2+30x+16 is divided by 3x+2

Use the long division method to find the result when $12 x^{3} + 17 x^{2} + 30 x + 16$ is divided by $3 x + 2$

Step 1

Write the problem as a mathematical expression.

Use the long division method to find the result when $\frac{12 x^{3} + 17 x^{2} + 30 x + 16}{3 x + 2}$

Step 2

Set up the polynomials to be divided. If there is not a term for every exponent, insert one with a value of $0$ .

$3 x$

$2$

$12 x^{3}$

$17 x^{2}$

$30 x$

$16$

Step 3

Divide the highest order term in the dividend $12 x^{3}$ by the highest order term in divisor $3 x$ .

					$4 x^{2}$
	$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$

Step 4

Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.

				$4 x^{2}$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			+	$12 x^{3}$	+	$8 x^{2}$

Step 5

The expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in $12 x^{3} + 8 x^{2}$

				$4 x^{2}$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$

Step 6

After changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find the new dividend.

				$4 x^{2}$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$

Step 7

Pull the next terms from the original dividend down into the current dividend.

				$4 x^{2}$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$

Step 8

Divide the highest order term in the dividend $9 x^{2}$ by the highest order term in divisor $3 x$ .

				$4 x^{2}$	+	$3 x$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$

Step 9

Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.

				$4 x^{2}$	+	$3 x$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$6 x$

Step 10

The expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in $9 x^{2} + 6 x$

				$4 x^{2}$	+	$3 x$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$
					-	$9 x^{2}$	-	$6 x$

Step 11

After changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find the new dividend.

				$4 x^{2}$	+	$3 x$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$
					-	$9 x^{2}$	-	$6 x$
							+	$24 x$

Step 12

Pull the next terms from the original dividend down into the current dividend.

				$4 x^{2}$	+	$3 x$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$
					-	$9 x^{2}$	-	$6 x$
							+	$24 x$	+	$16$

Step 13

Divide the highest order term in the dividend $24 x$ by the highest order term in divisor $3 x$ .

				$4 x^{2}$	+	$3 x$	+	$8$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$
					-	$9 x^{2}$	-	$6 x$
							+	$24 x$	+	$16$

Step 14

Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.

				$4 x^{2}$	+	$3 x$	+	$8$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$
					-	$9 x^{2}$	-	$6 x$
							+	$24 x$	+	$16$
							+	$24 x$	+	$16$

Step 15

The expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in $24 x + 16$

				$4 x^{2}$	+	$3 x$	+	$8$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$
					-	$9 x^{2}$	-	$6 x$
							+	$24 x$	+	$16$
							-	$24 x$	-	$16$

Step 16

After changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find the new dividend.

				$4 x^{2}$	+	$3 x$	+	$8$
$3 x$	+	$2$		$12 x^{3}$	+	$17 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$	+	$16$
			-	$12 x^{3}$	-	$8 x^{2}$
					+	$9 x^{2}$	+	$30 x$
					-	$9 x^{2}$	-	$6 x$
							+	$24 x$	+	$16$
							-	$24 x$	-	$16$
										$0$

Step 17

Since the remander is $0$ , the final answer is the quotient.

$4 x^{2} + 3 x + 8$
