Hi

Long Division is performed in a similar fashion as with numbers

(2x^3-29x+12)/ (x+4) = 2x^2 -8x + 3

 



          2x^2 + (-8x) +   3    

        __________________________

x + 4 |  2x^3           -29x    +12      

      - (2x^3 +  8x^2)

       ---------------

                -8x^2 -  29x

             - (-8x^2 -  32x))

                --------------

                          3x  + 12

                       - (3x  + 12)

                          --------

                               0
