Verifying Polynomial Division in Data Auditing

A data auditor is reviewing a software calculation that uses the relationship f(x)=q(x)(xโˆ’c)+rf(x) = q(x)(x - c) + r to verify polynomial division. When the auditor substitutes x=cx = c into this formula, what numerical value does the term q(c)(cโˆ’c)q(c)(c - c) simplify to, and what does this reveal about the relationship between f(c)f(c) and the remainder rr?
