Answer:

  • 3(x^3)y -6x(y^2) +9
  • 3

Explanation:

The above-listed answer choices are the only ones that are self-consistent.

The quotient choices all have a leading coefficient of 3, and the result of dividing by <some number> is a leading coefficient of 1. Obviously, the <some number> must be 3 (first choice on the second menu).

Looking only at the constant term, we see that after division by 3, we have 3. So the original quotient constant term must be 3×3 = 9 (first choice on the first menu). Note that we have chosen the correct answer simply by looking at coefficients, not even bothering with actual division of variables.
