          x^2 - 3x + 1
        ______________________
4x + 5 | 4x^3 - 7x^2 - 11x + 5
      - (4x^3 + 5x^2)
       --------------------
             (-12x^2 + 11x)  
            -(-12x^2 - 15x)
             -----------------
                       4x + 5
                     -(4x + 5)
                       --------
                            0
