[xiaoB]

Does it work ?

Exp: (s power of 4) over (4 times s power of 4 plus 1)

s^4
----------
(4S^4)+1

LONG DIVISION :
1/4
_______
4S^4+1√s^4
s^4+1/4
---------

hi xiaoB! welcome to pf!

(try using the X² icon just above the Reply box )

yes, long division always works

in fact, that is the way we calculate s⁴/(s⁴ + 1) !
