...in Arts. 60, 61, and 62, we have the following method for the division of one monomial by another: Divide the coefficient of the dividend by the coefficient of the divisor; Obtain the exponent of each literal factor in the quotient by subtracting the exponent of each letter...

...give minus. DIVISION IIY A SINGLE TERM 46. Rule. Hence in general to divide one term by another term, Divide the coefficient of the dividend by the coefficient of the divisor ; Obtain the exponent of each literal factor in the quotient by subtracting the exponent of each letter...

...e Hence the rule for division of radicals, // necessary, express the radicals with a common index. Divide the coefficient of the dividend by the coefficient of the divisor for the required coefficient. Divide the surd factor of the dividend by the surd factor of the divisor...

...quotient is + ; if they have unlike signs, the sign of the quotient is — . To find the quotient, divide the coefficient of the dividend by the coefficient of the divisor, and the result will be the coefficient of the quotient; to this annex the literal quantities in both dividend...

...be of the same order or reduced to the same order. (2) Indicate the division in fractional form. (3) Divide the coefficient of the dividend by the coefficient of the divisor and the radicand of the dividend by the radicand of the divisor, wherever possible, and write the quotient...

...Radicals. 147. Radical quantities are divided like other algebraic quantities. Hence we have the following rule : — Divide the coefficient of the dividend by the coefficient of the divisor, for a new coefficient. Divide the radical part of the dividend by the radical part of the divisor,...
