4x^2-24x+77-228/(x+3)4x224x+77228x+3

Explanation:

"one way is to use the divisor as a factor in the numerator"one way is to use the divisor as a factor in the numerator

"consider the numerator"consider the numerator

color(red)(4x^2)(x+3)color(magenta)(-12x^2)-12x^2+5x+34x2(x+3)12x212x2+5x+3

=color(red)(4x^2)(x+3)color(red)(-24x)(x+3)color(magenta)(+72x)+5x+3=4x2(x+3)24x(x+3)+72x+5x+3

=color(red)(4x^2)(x+3)color(red)(-24x)(x+3)color(red)(+77)(x+3)color(magenta)(-231)+3=4x2(x+3)24x(x+3)+77(x+3)231+3

=color(red)(4x^2)(x+3)color(red)(-24x)(x+3)color(red)(+77)(x+3)-228=4x2(x+3)24x(x+3)+77(x+3)228

"quotient "=color(red)(4x^2-24x+77)," remainder "=-228quotient =4x224x+77, remainder =228

rArr(4x^3-12x^2+5x+3)/(x+3)4x312x2+5x+3x+3

=4x^2-24x+77-228/(x+3)=4x224x+77228x+3
