long division things, we've gotten a nice
0
at the end.

This means that the
divisor polynomial went into the
other guy cleanly -- no remainder.
As you can imagine, things only work
out nicely like this when math teachers design them this way!
So, we're going to need to learn to
deal with remainders.
Let's do a really basic review:

For the second one, we're really doing
this:

We officially write it like this:

Remember? Well, it works the same way
