Animation showing the use of synthetic division to find the quotient of + + + by . Note that there is no term in x 3 {\displaystyle x^{3}} , 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 ...
The 3 in the quotient goes in the same column (ten-thousands place) as the 6 in the dividend 1260257, which is the same column as the last digit of 111. The 111 is then subtracted from the line above, ignoring all digits to the right:
Long division is the standard algorithm used for pen-and-paper division of multi-digit numbers expressed in decimal notation. It shifts gradually from the left to the right end of the dividend, subtracting the largest possible multiple of the divisor (at the digit level) at each stage; the multiples then become the digits of the quotient, and the final difference is then the remainder.
Divide the first term of the dividend by the highest term of the divisor (x 3 ÷ x = x 2). Place the result below the bar. x 3 has been divided leaving no remainder, and can therefore be marked as used by crossing it out. The result x 2 is then multiplied by the second term in the divisor −3 = −3x 2.

In arithmetic, short division is a division algorithm which breaks down a division problem into a series of easier steps. It is an abbreviated form of long division — whereby the products are omitted and the partial remainders are notated as superscripts.
