2. Synthetic division - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synthetic_division

   Animation showing the use of synthetic division to find the quotient of + + + by .Note that there is no term in , so the fourth column from the right contains a zero.. In algebra, synthetic division is a method for manually performing Euclidean division of polynomials, with less writing and fewer calculations than long division.

3. Partial fraction decomposition - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Partial_fraction_decomposition

   In algebra, the partial fraction decomposition or partial fraction expansion of a rational fraction (that is, a fraction such that the numerator and the denominator are both polynomials) is an operation that consists of expressing the fraction as a sum of a polynomial (possibly zero) and one or several fractions with a simpler denominator. [1]

4. Chunking (division) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chunking_(division)

   Compared to the short division and long division methods that are traditionally taught, chunking may seem strange, unsystematic, and arbitrary. However, it is argued that chunking, rather than moving straight to short division, gives a better introduction to division, in part because the focus is always holistic, focusing throughout on the ...

5. Fraction - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fraction

   A cake with one quarter (one fourth) removed. The remaining three fourths are shown by dotted lines and labeled by the fraction 1 ⁄ 4. A fraction (from Latin: fractus, "broken") represents a part of a whole or, more generally, any number of equal parts. When spoken in everyday English, a fraction describes how many parts of a certain size ...

6. Division (mathematics) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Division_(mathematics)

   In abstract algebra, given a magma with binary operation ∗ (which could nominally be termed multiplication), left division of b by a (written a \ b) is typically defined as the solution x to the equation a ∗ x = b, if this exists and is unique. Similarly, right division of b by a (written b / a) is the solution y to the equation y ∗ a = b ...

7. Solving quadratic equations with continued fractions - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solving_quadratic...

   The rate of convergence depends on the absolute value of the ratio between the two roots: the farther that ratio is from unity, the more quickly the continued fraction converges. When the monic quadratic equation with real coefficients is of the form x 2 = c, the general solution described above is useless because division by zero is not well ...
