$\frac{- 6 x^{2} y^{8} + 12 x y^{3} - 36 x y^{2}}{6 x y^{2}}$

Step 1

Set up the polynomials to be divided. If there is not a term for every exponent, insert one with a value of $0$ .

$6 y^{2} x$

$0$

$6 y^{8} x^{2}$

$12 y^{3} x$

$36 y^{2} x$

Step 2

Divide the highest order term in the dividend $- 6 y^{8} x^{2}$ by the highest order term in divisor $6 y^{2} x$ .

				-	$y^{6} x$
	$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$

Step 3

Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.

			-	$y^{6} x$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$0$

Step 4

The expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in $- 6 y^{8} x^{2} + 0$

			-	$y^{6} x$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$

Step 5

After changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find the new dividend.

			-	$y^{6} x$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$

Step 6

Pull the next terms from the original dividend down into the current dividend.

			-	$y^{6} x$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$

Step 7

Divide the highest order term in the dividend $12 y^{3} x$ by the highest order term in divisor $6 y^{2} x$ .

			-	$y^{6} x$	+	$2 y$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$

Step 8

Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.

			-	$y^{6} x$	+	$2 y$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$	+	$0$

Step 9

The expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in $12 y^{3} x + 0$

			-	$y^{6} x$	+	$2 y$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
					-	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$0$

Step 10

After changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find the new dividend.

			-	$y^{6} x$	+	$2 y$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
					-	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$0$
							-	$36 y^{2} x$

Step 11

Divide the highest order term in the dividend $- 36 y^{2} x$ by the highest order term in divisor $6 y^{2} x$ .

			-	$y^{6} x$	+	$2 y$	-	$6$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
					-	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$0$
							-	$36 y^{2} x$

Step 12

Multiply the new quotient term by the divisor.

			-	$y^{6} x$	+	$2 y$	-	$6$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
					-	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$0$
							-	$36 y^{2} x$
							-	$36 y^{2} x$	+	$0$

Step 13

The expression needs to be subtracted from the dividend, so change all the signs in $- 36 y^{2} x + 0$

			-	$y^{6} x$	+	$2 y$	-	$6$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
					-	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$0$
							-	$36 y^{2} x$
							+	$36 y^{2} x$	-	$0$

Step 14

After changing the signs, add the last dividend from the multiplied polynomial to find the new dividend.

			-	$y^{6} x$	+	$2 y$	-	$6$
$6 y^{2} x$	+	$0$	-	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
			+	$6 y^{8} x^{2}$	-	$0$
					+	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$36 y^{2} x$
					-	$12 y^{3} x$	-	$0$
							-	$36 y^{2} x$
							+	$36 y^{2} x$	-	$0$
										$0$

Step 15

Since the remander is $0$ , the final answer is the quotient.

$- y^{6} x + 2 y - 6$
