Algebraic Division

Level: GCSEs and above (this is an introduction into the techniques of dividing algebraic expressions)

About:

Algebraic Division is the process of dividing one polynomial by another. 

It is the generalised version of the arithmetic technique of long division, which you will have learnt earlier, and it is a useful tool as it allows you break down complex algebraic problems into more simple expressions. 

For a step-by-step guide of how to do this, with some helpful hints and key definitions, check out our lesson and exercises below!
