General Question

by fbmagnumopus Fri Nov 08, 2013 3:50 pm

Do you think that finding remainders of polynomial ratios is a potential topic that we should cover when studying for the quantitative section or is it too advanced?

I don't even know what you mean. So: too advanced!

Haha ok if you say so but I meant like if we have a third degree polynomial divided by a second degree polynomial which are not divisible by each other and on conducting long division we'd obtain a remainder in polynomial form be it first degree or 0 degree or what have you.

Hey FB,

Sorry, still have no idea what you're talking about! Remainders and polynomials do not go together on this test. Relax! It's good news!
