Hello there,
Here is an excellent tutorial on http://www.purplemath.com/modules/polydiv2.htm
I am referring to it primarily because I can't type long division symbols here, but if you need help any part of the tutorial, please write back.
As to your question, the quotient to division is x^2 - x + 4.
