I inserted the missing grouping symbols. We can divide (3x^3 - 2x^2 + x - 3)/(x + 2) longhand, using polynomial division (google it, if you need to find lessons and examples). The divisor is x + 2, and the quotient is 3x^2 - 8x + 17; the remainder is -37. We express the answer to a division problem as: quotient + remainder/divisor. :cool:
