could someone help me with math? (fractions/like terms)

Question

Perform the following division (find the following quotient).

x⁴−3x²y+xy^4/x

Answer 1

Assuming that the problem is (x⁴-3x²y+xy⁴)/x, divide each term of the numerator by x and simplify to get:

 

x⁴/x - (3x²y)/x + (xy⁴)/x = x³ - 3xy + y⁴
