Answer:
Assume, for the generality of it, that we have the equation
anxn+…+a1x+a0=0 where all coefficients are integers.
Construct the two sets A0 consisting of all divisors of a0 (in this case A0={1,2,3,6} ), and A1 consisting of all divisors of an (in this case A1={1} .
If the equation has a rational solution ±pq , then p∈A0,q∈A1 .
Thus, in this case, the only possible rational solutions are 1/1, 2/1, 3/1, 6/1, -1/1, -2/1, -3/1, -6/1. Additionally, we can see that no solution may be negative (that would have given a sum of four negative terms, adding to zero), so we have only four numbers to try: 1,2,3, and 6.
Of course, besides trial and error, we have no way to guarantee that this will provide us with a solution, but we can then say that any solution - beyond what this trial run gave - will be irrational, and may require the general formula for the solution of a cubic equation (in this case)
