Incorrect. The first step would be $\displaystyle\frac{{{x}}^{{3}}}{{x}}={{x}}^{{2}}\usepackage{cmbright}\Huge\$ . Write that on top. Multiply: $\displaystyle{{x}}^{{2}}{\left({x}-{2}\right)}={{x}}^{{3}}-{2}{{x}}^{{2}}\usepackage{cmbright}\Huge\$ . Write this below the dividend and subtract. Continue this process. Don't forget to put $\displaystyle{0}{{x}}^{{2}}\usepackage{cmbright}\Huge\$ into the dividend as a placeholder.
