A bit tricky to do here, but here goes
-5 | 16 80 1 5
80 0 -5
----------------------
16 0 1 | 0
and our answer is
16x^2 + 1

The synthetic division table is:
the test zero, x+=+-5 is from | at the left, and the coefficients ONLY of given polynomial from | at the right
-5|...16.....+80 .....1..... +5
....................-80.....0......-5
...........16......0......1......0
So we have %2816x%5E3%2B80x%5E2%2Bx%2B5%29%2F%28x%2B5%29=+16x%5E2%2B1
