  1. Recognize division methods: Recognize that the division of polynomials can be performed using polynomial long division or synthetic division. Since the divisor is a binomial of the form (x+a)(x + a), we can use polynomial long division.
  2. Set up long division: Set up the long division by writing the dividend x2+6x+9x^2 + 6x + 9 under the long division symbol and the divisor x+3x + 3 outside.
  3. Divide first terms: Divide the first term of the dividend (x2x^2) by the first term of the divisor (xx) to get the first term of the quotient. This gives us x2/x=xx^2 / x = x.
  4. Multiply divisor and quotient: Multiply the divisor (x+3)(x + 3) by the first term of the quotient (x)(x) to get x(x+3)=x2+3xx(x + 3) = x^2 + 3x.
  5. Subtract to find remainder: Subtract the result of the multiplication from the dividend to find the remainder. We have (x2+6x+9)(x2+3x)=3x+9(x^2 + 6x + 9) - (x^2 + 3x) = 3x + 9.
  6. Bring down next term: Bring down the next term of the dividend if necessary. In this case, we already have the complete remainder 3x+93x + 9 to work with.
  7. Divide new remainder: Divide the first term of the new remainder 3x3x by the first term of the divisor xx to get the next term of the quotient. This gives us 3xx=3\frac{3x}{x} = 3.
  8. Multiply divisor and new quotient: Multiply the divisor (x+3)(x + 3) by the new term of the quotient (3)(3) to get 3(x+3)=3x+93(x + 3) = 3x + 9.
  9. Subtract to find new remainder: Subtract the result of the multiplication from the new remainder to find the new remainder. We have (3x+9)(3x+9)=0(3x + 9) - (3x + 9) = 0.
  10. Determine exact division: Since the remainder is 00, the division is exact, and we have found the quotient. The quotient is the result of the division, which is x+3x + 3.
