When we divide a polynomial P(x) by a divisor D(x), the Division Algorithm tells us that we can always obtain a quotient Q(x) and a remainder R(x). State the two forms in which the result of this division can be written.

The two forms in which the result of this division can be written are
P ( x ) D ( x ) = Q ( x ) + R ( x ) D ( x )
and
P ( x ) = D ( x ) Q ( x ) + R ( x )
Result:
P ( x ) D ( x ) = Q ( x ) + R ( x ) D ( x )
P ( x ) = D ( x ) Q ( x ) + R ( x )
