Apparently the government of British Columbia is abolishing the teaching of long division. Instead they will be teaching synthetic division. I researched it, as I am applying still for teaching jobs, and I will eventually need to know it. Unfortunately I have only found out how to synthetically divide when using “x – c” which of course they’ve been using for a few years now. And incidentally, it’s a ridiculous way of dividing.
So, if anyone knows HOW to divide synthetically, please let me know!
