For the final answer, make sure you either bracket what you are trying to divide or chuck it into a fraction and put this all in an 'expand' bracket which will give you the answer you're looking for :)

I recall someone in my Methods call last year mentioning a command known as 'PolyDivide' or 'PolyRemainder' (or something very similar to one of those) that works well for long division. Sorry I can't help further.

I assume youre talking about polynomial division? if you are, then the command is expand(<polynomial fraction>)
