Your answer would be #1. The problem would be written in this form:
(3x²y)(2x³y) *The two equations are being multiplied by each other* The rule for integers when multiplying is to add them together. To solve this you would do (3)(2)= 6
(x²)(x³)= x^2+x^3 = x^5
(y^1)(y^1)= y^1+y^1= y^2
Combine your terms to end up with 6x^5y^2
