The degree is the value of the greatest exponent of any expression (except the constant) in the polynomial.
Given,
$2 x y + 4 x^{3}$
There are 2 terms $2 x y + 4 x^{3}$ , it is a binomial and the polynomial has 2 variable $(x^{3}, y)$ as the highest degree of all the terms.
Therefore,
Degree is $3$
