Maharashtra Board Class 8 Maths Chapter 10 Division of Polynomials Practice Set 10.1 Solution

Question 1.
Divide and write the quotient and the remainder.
i. 21m² ÷ 7m
ii. 40a³ ÷ (-10a)
iii. (- 48p⁴) ÷ (- 9p²)
iv. 40m⁵ ÷ 30m³
v. (5x³ – 3x²) ÷ x²
vi. (8p³ – 4p²) ÷ 2p²
vii. (2y³ + 4y² + 3 ) ÷ 2y²
viii. (21x⁴ – 14x² + 7x) ÷ 7x³
ix. (6x⁵ – 4x⁴ + 8x³ + 2x²) ÷ 2x²
x. (25m⁴ – 15m³ + 10m + 8) ÷ 5m³
Solution:
i. 21m² ÷ 7m

∴ Quotient = 3m
Remainder = 0

ii. 40a³ ÷ (-10a)

∴ Quotient = -4a²
Remainder = 0

iii. (- 48p⁴) ÷ (- 9p²)

∴ Quotient = 16/3 p²
Remainder = 0

iv. 40m⁵ ÷ 30m³

∴ Quotient = 4/3 m²
Remainder = 0

v. (5x³ – 3x²) ÷ x²

∴ Quotient = 5x – 3
Remainder = 0

vi. (8p³ – 4p²) ÷ 2p²

∴ Quotient = 4p – 2
Remainder = 0

vii. (2y³ + 4y² + 3 ) ÷ 2y²

∴ Quotient = y + 2
Remainder = 3

viii. (21x⁴ – 14x² + 7x) ÷ 7x³

∴ Quotient = 3x
Remainder = -14x² + 7x

ix. (6x⁵ – 4x⁴ + 8x³ + 2x²) ÷ 2x²

∴ Quotient = 3x³ – 2x² + 4x + 1
Remainder = 0

x. (25m⁴ – 15m³ + 10m + 8) ÷ 5m³

∴ Quotient = 5m – 3
Remainder = 10m + 8
