4x goes into 12x%5E2 green%283x%29 times

3x times 4x-1 is 12x%5E2-3x

12x%5E2-3x subtracted from 12x%5E2-35x is -32x

4x goes into -32x green%28-8%29 times

-8 times 4x-1 is -32x%2B8

-32x%2B8 subtracted from -32x%2B8 is zero, so no remainder

Quotient: 3x-8 (Add the green items from the process above)
