Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

First consider a part of the numerator 5 + 3y2. This can be verbally described as "the sum of 5 and 3 times the square of y".

Then, the entire expression in the numerator, (5 + 3y2)3, can be written as "the cube of the sum of 5 and 3 times the square of y".

Next, consider a part of the denominator (4y), which can be verbally described as "the product of 4 and y".

Then, the entire expression in the denominator, (4y)3, can be written as "the cube of the product of 4 and y".

Dividing the two expressions yields the complete expression shown below.

So, the given expression can be interpreted as "the cube of the sum of 5 and 3 times the square of y divided by the cube of the product of 4 and y".
