...reference to some common letter, we have the following rule for the division of polynomials : 1°. Divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor, and set the result, with its proper sign, as the first term of the quotient. 2°. Multiply the divisor... | |

...terms of each of them so, that the higher power of .one of the letters may stand before the lower. Then divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor, and set the result in the quotient, with its proper sign, or simply by itself, if it be affirmative. This... | |

...order to conform to the general method of proceeding from the left toward the right, it is customary to divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of thi. riivisor ; this, however, affects no principle, as the division may be com menced at the right... | |

...dividend and divisor, thus arranged, being placed as dividend and divisor, are placed in arithmetic, divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor ; the result is the first term of the quotient. 3. Then, as in arithmetic, multiply the whole divinar... | |

...dividend and the divisor are arranged according to the powers of any letter, the result of the division of the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor is the first term of the quotient. Let, for example, A = a3 -\- 2aa63 -f- ¿3 be the dividend, a3 and... | |
