Answer: In the expression 4(2m-n) ,'2m' is a term.

In the expression 4b+32xz , '32xz' is a term

in the expression 4b + 32xz , '4' is a coefficient of variable 'b' and factor of expression(4b + 32xz)

Explanation:

1)In the expression 4(2m-n) ,'2m' is a term.

A term is defined as single number or single variable or number and variable multiplying with each other in a mathematics expression.

For example: in 4(2m-n) ; 2m and n are the terms in an expression

2) In the expression 4b+32xz , '32xz' is a term

For example : 4b+32xz ; 4b and 32xz are terms in an given expression.

3) In the expression 4b + 32xz , '4' is a coefficient of variable 'b'.

Coefficient is number coming before the variable in an expression.

So, the '4' is a coefficient of variable 'b'.

Also the number 4 is factor of the expression :

4b + 32xz = 4(b+9xz)

Hence, the number '4' is coefficient and factor both.
