...exponent equal to 5 minus 3. For dividing one monomial by another, then, we deduce from the above example the following rule : — Divide the coefficient of the dividend by the coefficient of the divisor, for a new coefficient. After this coefficient write all the letters of the dividend, giving to each... | |

Hence we derive the following RULE. Divide the coefficient of the dividend by the coefficient of the divisor, and strike out the letters of the divisor from the dividend.
