How to Make a Synthetic Division Program for a TI-84

The TI-84 is a graphing calculator used by students to perform advanced mathematical computations that extend beyond the capabilities of a scientific calculator. The TI-84 is capable of performing various functions through the use of programs. Third-party programs can solve things such as synthetic division problems. Synthetic division is a way to solve polynomial division. Use a TI-84 program to simplify synthetic division, which can be tedious and complicated when solving on paper.
