If \((x \pm h)\) is a factor of a polynomial, then the remainder will be zero. Conversely, if the remainder is zero, then \((x \pm h)\) is a factor. Often, factorising a polynomial requires some ...

First, make sure the polynomial ... x + 2)\) is the divisor, \((3{x^2} - 6x + 8)\) is the quotient and \(- 11\) is the remainder. If you see that your answer has a common factor in the quotient ...
