Answer:

co-efficient = 2

Explanation:

Hi! Let me help you out.

___________

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Part 1

Note that luckily, all terms here, are like terms.

Which means we can easily combine them.


\longmapsto\sf 6ab+3ab-7ab. Upon simplifying we obtain this.


\longmapsto\sf 2ab

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Part 2

What is the co-efficient, of the simplified expression?

The co-efficient is a number that's multiplied times a variable. Which in this case is 2. Which is our answer.
