The video tutorial introduces the box method for dividing polynomials, explaining its advantages over traditional methods like long division and synthetic division. It covers setting up the box, filling it with terms, and solving for the quotient. The tutorial also addresses handling remainders and provides advanced examples to illustrate variations of the method. The box method is presented as a quick and efficient alternative for polynomial division.

What is the first step in setting up the box for polynomial division?

• Multiply the terms directly

• Put the denominator on the side of the box

• Draw the entire box

• Write the numerator inside the box
