Answer

$2y^{2}+3y+5$

Work Step by Step

$\begin{array}{ccccccccccc} & & 2y^{2} & +3y & +5 & \\ & &--&-- &--& \\ 3y-1&) & 6y^{3} &+7y^{2} & +12y& -5 & & \\ & & 6y^{3} & -2y^{2} & & & \color{red}{\leftarrow \small{2y^{2}(3y-1) } } \\ & &--&-- & & & \color{red}{ \small{subtract}} \\ & & & 9y^{2} & +12y& -5 & \\ & & & 9y^{2} & -3y& & \color{red}{\leftarrow \small{3y(3y-1) } }\\ & & &--&-- & &\color{red}{ \small{subtract}} \\ & & & & 15y & -5 & \\ & & & & 15y & -5 & \color{red}{\leftarrow \small{5(3y-1) } }\\ & & & &-- & -- &\color{red}{ \small{subtract}} \\ & & & & & 0 & \end{array}$ Quotient = $2y^{2}+3y+5$ Remainder = $ 0$. $\displaystyle \frac{dividend}{divisor}=quotient+\frac{remainder}{divisor}$ $\displaystyle \frac{ 6y^{3}+7y^{2}+12y-5}{3y-1}$ = $2y^{2}+3y+5$
