# Calculators :: Polynomials :: Synthetic Division Calculator

This calculator can divide polynomial using the synthetic division. It can also determine remainder when you divide the given polynomial by $x-c$. The calculator will generate a step by step explanation for each operation.

## Synthetic Division Calculator

The polynomial coefficients may be any real numbers (You can enter either integers (10), decimal numbers(10.12) or FRACTIONS (10/3). Important: The form will NOT let you enter illegal characters (like *, (, ), y, p, ...)

0 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 - / . del
 Divide $p(x)$ by $q(x)$ using synthetic division. Find the remainder when $p(x)$ is divided by $q(x)$. Determine whether $q(x)$ is a factor of $p(x)$.
Show me an explanation.

## Synthetic Division Calculator

The polynomial coefficients may be only integer numbers.

## Examples

 a) Divide $3x^3-5x+2$ by $x+4$. b) Find the remainder when $5x^4-2x^3-4x+2$ is divided by $x-2$. c) Divide $-x^5-5x^3-x^2+2$ by $x+2$ d) Determine whether $x-1$ is a factor of $3x^3-5x^2-x+3$.
