Step 2
Remove parentheses.
Step 3
Set up the polynomials to be divided. If there is not a term for every exponent, insert one with a value of .
+-+++
Step 4
Divide the highest order term in the dividend by the highest order term in divisor .
-
+-+++
Step 5
Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.
-
+-+++
