EXACTLY the way you would do for base-ten numbers. THE SAME WAY!

m+1   |       2m^2      -m     -3
      |
      |       2m^2      2m
      ______________________
              0        -3m     -3              bring down the minus 3 from above
                       -3m     -3
                       ------------
                        0       0
