Answer

$2r^4+r^2-7$

Work Step by Step

Re-arranging the order of the terms, the given is equivalent to $$ (2r^6-5r^4-10r^2+21)÷(r^2-3) .$$ Using the long division method shown below, then $$\begin{aligned} & (2r^6-5r^4-10r^2+21)÷(r^2-3) \\&= 2r^4+r^2-7+\frac{\color{red}{0}}{\color{blue}{r^2-3}} \\&= 2r^4+r^2-7 .\end{aligned} $$
