Solution
\[\text{Quotient} = 5 z^2 + \frac{10}{3}z + 11\]
\[\text{Remainder} = 54\]
\[\text{Divisor} = 3z - 6\]
\[\text{Divisor} \times \text{Quotient} + \text{Remainder} = (3z - 6)\left( 5 z^2 + \frac{10}{3}z + 11 \right) + 54\]
\[ = 15 z^3 + 10 z^2 + 33z - 30 z^2 - 20z - 66 + 54\]
\[ = 15 z^3 - 20 z^2 + 13z - 12\]
\[ = \text{Dividend}\]
\[Thus, \]
\[\text{Divisor} \times \text{Quotient} + \text{Remainder} = \text{Dividend}\]
