Lesson Summary:

In this lesson, you will learn how to check the answer to a polynomial division problem that was introduced in part two. You will see how to write the quotient and remainder as a fraction and how to use long division to check your answer. Keep in mind that long division takes time and practice, so don't expect to master it after just a few problems.

Lesson Description:

This is Part 3 of Dividing Polynomials using long division. Part 2 shows how to divide a polynomial with 4 terms by a binomial. Part 3 shows how to check the answer to the problem in part 2.
