Polynomial long division is easier than numerical long division because you only need to examine the first terms to determine the quotient term.
The first quotient term is 10x^4/x^3 = 10x.
The second quotient term is 16x^3/x^3 = 16.
When the leading dividend term is lower degree than the divisor, that dividend is the remainder.
