This question already has an answer here:




  • Show that if $ R $ is an integral domain then a polynomial in $ R[X] $ of degree $ d $ can have at most $ d $ roots

The question is as stated in the title:
Prove that p(x) cannot have more than m zeros $p(x)$, where $p(x)$ is a polynominal of degree m and $p(x) ∈ mathbb{K} [x]$ and $mathbb{K}$ is a field . (where the zeros are counted with multiplcities)



I am also given the hint : Use the fact that $mathbb{K} [x]$ is a factorial ring
