This particular question was asked in a masters entrance exam .

Prove that $\mathbb{Q}[X,Y] $ / (X) is a PID .

I will not be able to show any attempt because I dont know how I should start and also due to the fact these type of questions were not given in the assignments given to us in the class .

Kindly shed some light on this question .
