$5$ $5$ . It is the sum of degrees of variables of highest degree

Degree of each term is obtained adding degrees of literal part. And degree of expresion is the highest sum.

In our case

$5 x^{2} v^{3} + 3 x^{2}$ $5x^color(red)2v^color(red)3+3x^2$

$2 + 3 = 5$ $2+3=5$

What is the degree of 5x ^ { 2} v ^ { 3} + 2x ^ { 2} 5x2v3+2x25x ^ { 2} v ^ { 3} + 2x ^ { 2} ?
