Given the following expressions:


\begin{gathered} xy^3+3x+1 \\ -15 \\ 5-3t+(1)/(2)t^3-7t \\ 5x+1.4 \end{gathered}

in the first case, the degree of the polynomial will be the largest sum of the exponents in each term. Then, for the first expression, we get:


\begin{gathered} xy^3+3x+1 \\ Degree\colon4 \end{gathered}

then, for the following expressions, we have the following:


\begin{gathered} -15 \\ Degree\colon0 \\ 5-3t+(1)/(2)t^3-7t^2 \\ Degree\colon3 \\ 5x+1.4 \\ Degree\colon1 \end{gathered}
