I need to find the derivatives of
( 1 + x y ) 3 = y x 1
I tried this and stuck
3 ( 1 + x y ) 2 ( 0 + x ( d y d x ) + y ) = y x 2 + ( x 1 d y d x )
d y d x ( x + y x 1 ) = y x 2 3 ( 1 + x y ) 2
d y d x = y x 2 3 ( 1 + x y ) 2 x + y x 1
I'm not quite sure how to simplify it to achieve the final answer -
y ( 3 x 2 ( 1 + x y ) 2 + 1 x ( 3 x 2 ( 1 + x y ) 2 1

Applying the d operator to both sides as I think you have done we have
3 ( 1 + x y ) 2 ( y + x y ) = y 1 x y x 2 3 y ( 1 + x y ) 2 + 3 x ( 1 + x y ) 2 y = y 1 x y x 2
which we can solve for y as follows
y ( 1 x 3 x ( 1 + x y ) 2 ) = 3 y ( 1 + x y ) 2 + y x 2 y = 3 y ( 1 + x y ) 2 + y x 2 1 x 3 x ( 1 + x y ) 2 = 3 x 2 y ( 1 + x y ) 2 + y x 3 x 3 ( 1 + x y ) 2
