Have a look at the polynom package. That will probably do the trick for you.

The package already offers the simplest (because automated) method. You just need to learn how to read manuals.

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt]{article}
\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{polynom}

\polyset{%
  style=C,
  delims={\big(}{\big)},
  div=:
}

\begin{document}
  \[
    \polylongdiv{x^3-2x^2+4x+7}{x+1}
  \]
\end{document}

For details take a look at Sections 4.1 and 4.2 of the polynom manual.
