Find the quotient for 4m^3-38m^2+57m-72/m-8 using long division. Clearly indicate your quotient with any remainders. Example attached, solve like example.

This image displays the process of polynomial long division. The dividend is \(x^2 - 3x + 2\) and the divisor is \(3x + 9\).

### Steps:

1. **Initial Setup**:
    - The term \(3x^3 + 0x^2 + 4x + 11\) is divided by the first term of the divisor, \(3x\).
    - The quotient begins with \(3x\).

2. **First Multiplication and Subtraction**:
    - Multiply \(3x\) by the divisor \(3x + 9\) resulting in \(3x^3 + 9x^2\).
    - Subtract from the current dividend: 
      \[
      (3x^3 + 0x^2 + 4x + 11) - (3x^3 + 9x^2) = -9x^2 + 4x + 11
      \]

3. **Next Step**:
    - Bring down the next term to get \(-9x^2 + 4x + 11\).
    - Divide \(-9x^2\) by \(3x\) to get \(-3x\).
    - Multiply \(-3x\) by the divisor to get \(-9x^2 - 27x\).

4. **Subtraction**:
    - Subtract: 
      \[
      (-9x^2 + 4x + 11) - (-9x^2 - 27x) = 31x + 11
      \]

5. **Final Division**:
    - Divide \(31x\) by \(3x\) to get the next term of the quotient.
    - Continue the process as necessary.

### Result:
- The quotient of the division is written as:
  \[
  \text{Quotient: } 3x + 9 + \frac{25x - 7}{x^2-3x+2}
  \]

This process describes how to carry out each step of polynomial long division with detailed subtractions and calculations, clearly showing the development of the quotient.
