Fields, Polynomials, GCD and Divisibility

1A)  Let F be a field and let f(x), g(x) and h(x) be polynomials in Fx.  Prove that gcd(f(x),g(x)) = 1F and f(x) divides g(x)h(x), then f(x) divides h(x).

1B) Let F be a field and let f(x), g(x), h(x), and d(x) be polynomials in Fx.  Prove that if gcd(f(x),g(x)) = d(x) and both f(x) and g(x) divide h(x) , then f(x)g(x) divides h(x)d(x).
