Long division method.
(x^3-4x^2)/(x-1) = x^2 remainder -3x^2 to carry
(-3x^2+5x)/(x-1) =-3x remainder 2x to carry
(2x-2)/(x-1)=2
Adding these parts back together
Answer = x^2-3x+2
Well, the roots are x = 1 (twice) and x = 2, so it's (x-2)(x-1)(x-1), and thus the result is (x-2)(x-1)
The answer is x^2-3x+2=(x-2)(x-1)
