\n" ); document.write( "SINCE DIVISION IS BY X-1 WE CAN USE SHORT DIVISION.
\n" ); document.write( "PUT X-1=0...SO X=1..NOW WRITE COEFFICIENTS OF THE GIVEN EXPRESSION AS FOLLOWS\r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "1..|..1.....-2.....-8.....5.THESE ARE COEFFICIENTS OF X^3,X^2,X AND CONSTANT
\n" ); document.write( "...|..0.....1......-1....-9.PUT 0 FIRST.NEXT MULTIPLY THE PREVIOUS LOWER NUMBER
\n" ); document.write( "----------------------------WITH 1 AND PUT THE ANSWER.1*1=1:-1*1=-1:-9*1=-9
\n" ); document.write( "......1....-1......-9....-4..ADD VERTICALLY AND PUT THE SUMS IN THIS ROW
\n" ); document.write( "NOW WRITE THE REMAINDER AS THE LAST DIGIT IN BOTTOM ROW =-4 AND QUOTIENT IS
\n" ); document.write( "X^2-X-9
\n" ); document.write( "
