First, we try to factor x^2 + 2x + 10. That doesn't seem quite possible, so now we try to use completing the square with (x-1)^2. We get that x^2 + 2x +10 = (x-1)^2 + 4x + 9. We can still factor it more and get (x-1)*(x-1 + 4) + 13 = (x-1)*(x+3) +13. Hence, the quotient is x+3 and the remainder is 13.

I believe that Mr./Ms./Mrs. Soapen here has deleted his question. Not exactly a nice thing to do for the other people who want to learn from the answer and the question, but I suppose it's just his/her preference for people not to learn...

We can make a table:

1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8

                                                                                         1  1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8

                                                                                         2  2   4   6   8  10 12 14 16

                                                                                         3  3   6   9  12 15 18 21 24

                                                                                         4  4   8  12 16 20 24 28 32

                                                                                         5  5  10 15 20 25 30 35 40

                                                                                         6  6  12 18 24 30 36 42 48

We can see that in the table there are 48 values, and 24 of these are a multiple of three, so the probability that the product of the two rolls is a multiple of 3 is 24/48 = 1/2.

? I don't really notice that, I mean, there's not much spam on the website, it's mostly just random stuff and the occasional nasty Guest...

LOL, I love it!

Hmmmm... Have I become a TOP now? Am I no longer a person? Hmmm... *sits in corner pondering the meaning of life*

You're welcome!
