You must really mean this:
%282x%5E2+-4x-44%29%2F%28x-6%29.

Assuming you want polynomial division

2x%5E2%2Fx=highlight_green%282x%29;
2x%5E2-4x-%282x%29%28x-6%29
2x%5E2-4x-%282x%5E2-12x%29
2x%5E2-4x-2x%5E2%2B12x
8x

Bring down the next term.
8x-44, the resulting dividend.
8x%2Fx=highlight_green%288%29;
8x-44-8%28x-6%29
8x-44-8x%2B48
highlight_green%284%29---------------This now is the remainder.

Quotient:
highlight%282x%2B8%2B4%2F%28x-6%29%29
