(I am assuming that for example, in 6x5 the exponent is 5, so the expression is 6x⁵ - 4x² + 2x³ - 3 + x) Finding the degree of a polynomial is really simple. All you have to do is find the largest exponent in the polynomial, so in this case, the degree is 5 (Yes, my previous answer is wrong) and not 26. I don't know how you got 26. Another example: In 3x² - 8x⁷ + 6xy⁴, the degree is 7.
