Solution

Quotient = 3y2 + 2y + 2
Remainder = 4y2 + 25y + 4
Divisor = 2y3 + 1
Divisor x Quotient + Remainder = (2y3 + 1) (3y2 + 2y + 2) + 4y2 + 25y + 4
= 6y5 + 4y4 + 4y3 + 3y2 + 2y + 2 + 4y2 + 25y + 4
= 6y5 + 4y4 + 4y3 + 7y2 + 27y + 6
= Dividend
Thus,
Divisor x Quotient + Remainder = Dividend
Hence verified.
