Σελίδα 124 - ... first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor, and write the result as the first term of the quotient. Multiply the divisor by this first term of the quotient, and subtract the resulting product from the dividend. Divide the first term of the remainder by the first term of the divisor, and write the result as the second term of the quotient. Multiply the divisor by this second term of the quotient, and subtract the product from the remainder previously obtained. Proceed with the...
