The Quotient Poly. is (8x^3+5x^2-x+2).

The Reminder is 6.

Explanation:

it is assumed that the Dividend Poly. is

: p(x)=24x^4+31x^3+7x^2+4x+10, instead of as stated in the

Problem : 24x^4+31^3+7x^2+4x+10.

We split the terms of p(x) as under :

p(x)=ul(24x^4+16x^3)+ul(15x^3+10x^2)-ul(3x^2-2x)+ul(6x+4)+6

=8x^3(3x+2)+5x^2(3x+2)-x(3x+2)+2(3x+2)+6

=(3x+2)(8x^3+5x^2-x+2)+6

Therefore, dividing p(x) by (3x+2), the Quotient Poly. is

(8x^3+5x^2-x+2) and the Reminder is 6.
