Divide.

 21y5 - 28y4 + 14y3 
————————————————————
         7y

This is division by a monomial


There are three terms in the top, so begin by drawing
three lines:

——————   ——————   ——————       

Now put the signs of the terms between the lines:

                 
—————— - —————— + ——————
                       
Now copy the denominator 7y under every line:



—————— - —————— + ——————
  7y       7y       7y

Write the terms above the lines

 21y5     28y4     14y3 
—————— - —————— + ——————
  7y       7y       7y

Give 1 exponents to the y's in the bottoms

 21y5     28y4     14y3 
—————— - —————— + ———————
  7y1      7y1      7y1

Cancel the 7's into the numerators:
 
 3        4        2 
 21y5     28y4     14y3 
—————— - —————— + ———————
  7y1      7y1      7y1
  1        1        1


 3y5      4y4      2y3 
—————— - —————— + —————
 1y1      1y1      1y1


Subtract exponents to divide the y's

 3y4      4y3      2y2 
—————— - —————— + —————
  1        1        1

   3y4 - 4y3 + 2y2
