What it calculates

The “Polynomial Long Division” calculator computes P(d) (remainder) from 5 parameters: coefficient of x³, coefficient of x², coefficient of x, const, divisor (x − d).

A core calculation for studying, engineering tasks, and checking solutions.

Example calculation

With parameters Coefficient of x³ = 0, Coefficient of x² = 1, Coefficient of x = -5, const = 6, Divisor (x − d) = 2 the result is 0 (Division by Horner's scheme (synthetic division); by the remainder theorem the remainder equals P(d)).

How to use

  1. Enter coefficient of x³, coefficient of x², coefficient of x, const and divisor (x − d) — each field above is adjustable with a slider.
  2. P(d) (remainder) is calculated automatically as you type.
  3. Check the worked example below to see the formula applied to real numbers.
  4. Copy the result or bookmark this calculator.
