Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

Choice D,  x-2


Discussion:

Observe the the highest order term in the numerator is  x^4 and the highest order term in the denominator is x^3. So the highest order term in their quotient is x^4/x^3 = x.  Choice D is the only possible answer as all other choices start with x^2

Regards,  

MrB
