&lt;pre&gt;
I am having a problem with dividing polynomials.

(6x^2 - 25x - 10) divided by (3x + 2)=?????
send the complete question.

I know that 3x/6x^2 = 2x after that I am lost.  Can you help!

                &lt;u&gt;2x&lt;/u&gt;{{{- 29/3}}}
              -------------------------              
3x + 2 | 6x&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; - 25x - 10
            | &lt;u&gt;6x&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; +  4x&lt;/u&gt; &lt;===== Multiplying quotient, 2x by divisor, 3x + 2  
            |         - 29x - 10 &lt;== Subtracting 6x&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; + 4x from 6x&lt;sup&gt;2&lt;/sup&gt; - 25x, and BRINGING DOWN - 10
            |         - 29x - {{{58/3}}}&lt;== Multiplying quotient, {{{- 29/3}}} by divisor, 3x + 2 
            |  ------------------ 
            |                      {{{58/3}}} - 10 &lt;== Subtracting - 29x {{{- 58/3}}} from - 29x - 10
                              , or {{{58/3 - 30/3 = 28/3}}} &lt;=== Remainder

So, {{{highlight((6x^2 - 25x - 10)/(3x + 2))}}} = {{{highlight(2x - 29/3 + (28/3)/(3x + 2))}}}&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&gt;&lt;/font&lt;&lt;b&gt;&lt;/pre&gt;</PRE>
