We want our product to have a coefficient of 120.

So let's use 60 and 2.


We want our product of the "x" terms to have a final product of x⁻³, so let's use 5 and -8.

And we want our product of the "y" terms to have a final product of y, so let's use 2 and -1.

So one possible solution is:

60x⁵y² · 2x⁻⁸y⁻¹
