x=qx^{3}+qx+rx
Use the distributive property to multiply qx by x^{2}+1.
qx^{3}+qx+rx=x
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
qx^{3}+qx=x-rx
Subtract rx from both sides.
\left(x^{3}+x\right)q=x-rx
Combine all terms containing q.
\frac{\left(x^{3}+x\right)q}{x^{3}+x}=\frac{x-rx}{x^{3}+x}
Divide both sides by x^{3}+x.
q=\frac{x-rx}{x^{3}+x}
Dividing by x^{3}+x undoes the multiplication by x^{3}+x.
q=\frac{1-r}{x^{2}+1}
Divide x-xr by x^{3}+x.
x=qx^{3}+qx+rx
Use the distributive property to multiply qx by x^{2}+1.
qx^{3}+qx+rx=x
Swap sides so that all variable terms are on the left hand side.
qx+rx=x-qx^{3}
Subtract qx^{3} from both sides.
rx=x-qx^{3}-qx
Subtract qx from both sides.
rx=-qx^{3}-qx+x
Reorder the terms.
xr=x-qx-qx^{3}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{xr}{x}=\frac{x-qx-qx^{3}}{x}
Divide both sides by x.
r=\frac{x-qx-qx^{3}}{x}
Dividing by x undoes the multiplication by x.
r=1-q-qx^{2}
Divide -qx^{3}-xq+x by x.
