Help! I have just pulled these yellow/brown leaves off my monkey leaf Monstera. Does anyone know if this is due or over/under watering?

Check the roots, I had something similar. It was from one I bought from the supermarket. The roots were not fully established so the cuttings couldn’t get enough water plus they were in way too large of a pot. They were also being overwatered and they looked similar to this
