At line 6 (and on all of the example polynomial long division problems), it is a matter of style, but I prefer to have the terms of the quotient line up with like terms in the dividend, the way we do arithetic long division. That is, I would have written the first example as:

At line 6 add

308301
308601
308901

At line 10 add

308302
308602
