Divide a Polynomial by a Monomial

 $\frac{8x^5}{2x}\ +\ \frac{6x^3}{2x}\ -\ \frac{2x}{2x}$ 

Divide the Coefficients and Divide the Variables by subtracting the exponents

 $\frac{8x^5}{2x}\ +\ \frac{6x^3}{2x}\ -\ \frac{2x}{2x}\ =\ 4x^4\ +\ 3x^2\ -\ 1$ 

 $\frac{18a^7}{6a^2}\ -\ \frac{24a^6}{6a^2}\ -\ \frac{30a^5}{6a^2}\ +\ \frac{12a^4}{6a^2}$  

 $3a^5\ -\ 4a^4\ -\ 5a^3\ +\ 2a^2$
