f(x) = 3x⁵ - 7x³ + 2x - 15 List all the factors of 15, the number on the right end of the right side, ignoring the sign for the time being: They are 1, 3, 5, 15 List all the factors of 3, the coefficient of of x⁵, also ignoring the sign for the time being: 1, 3 Now make every possible fraction you can make taking the numerator from 1, 3, 5, 15 and the denominator from 1, 3 1/1, 1/3, 3/1, 3/3, 5/1, 5/3, 15/1, 15/3 Simplify them: 1, 1/3, 3, 1, 5, 5/3, 15, 5 Throw out the duplicates: 1, 1/3, 3, 5, 5/3, 15 Now put ± in front of each: ±1, ±1/3, ±3, ±5, ±5/3, ±15 That's it!
