Answer:

Like terms are similar numbers or variables.

Example:

4+ 3x - 3x =? Here we can subtract the like terms, which are 3x.

6 + 6 = x Here we can add the like terms, which are 6.

5x + 6x is also able to be added since they each have a variable and a whole number.

You add or subtract numbers are variables who are similar.

Hope this is correct, have a great day.
