Answer:
9
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
4x - y is a multiple of 3.
So,
Let 4x - y = 3k {k is some constant} --- (1)
Now,
4x² + 7xy-2y²
=> 4x^2 + 8xy - xy - 2y^2
=> 4x(x + 2y) - y(x + 2y)
=> (4x - y)(x + 2y)
From (1), The above equation can be written as,
=> (3k)(x + 2(4x - 3k))
=> (3k)(x + 8x - 6k)
=> 3k(9x - 6k)
=> 9k(3x - 2k)
Here, 9 is the only number which divides the polynomial for all values of x and y.
Therefore,
The smallest number is 9.
