Rewrite the expression in long division form  .

Divide the first term of the dividend by the first term of the divisor. .

So the first term of the quotient is x². Multiply the by x² and subtract. \ \

Divide the first term of the last row by the first term of the divisor .

So the next term of the quotient is y². Multiply the by y² and subtract.

Divide the first term of the last row by the first term of the divisor. . \ \ So, the first term of the quotient is . Multiply   by  and subtract. \ \

The remainder is the last entry in the last row. Therefore, R = 0.

The number along the bottom row are the coefficients of the quotient.

The quotient is .

The result of division is .
