You must be referring to my reply to your post

If you have follow-up questions, please ask them in the original post, do not start a new one.

To do the type of question you asked, you must know how to do long division with algebraic expressions or synthetic division.

in Google, type "long algebraic division" and you will find many pages where the process is explained.
