0 is obviously one of the roots.

The possible roots to check for the quadratic factor are the positives and negatives of 1,2,5,25,50.
Try synthetic division. None of the remainders will be 0.

.

How your original equation is presented in the post, it does not make sense to refer to the Rational Zero theorem.

Obviously, you meant other starting equation.

Please be more attentive and more accurate next time.
