The quotient of (6x^2-x-40) divided by (5+2x) is (3x-20)/(2x+5). To arrive at this answer, the polynomials must first be simplified by dividing the terms with the greatest exponent. In this case, that is 6x^2. 6x^2/(2x+5)=3x/1 -x/(2x+5)=-1/2 -40/(2x+5)=-20/1 The resulting polynomial is (3x-20)/(2x+5)
