Answer 1

Recall that in an algebraic expression like the one below

`c(x+y)`

(x+y), and c are the factors of the expression, each factor consists of terms, the number of terms is the number of simpler expressions inside the factor.

Therefore, the algebraic expression

`(a+b+c)(d+e+f)`

Has 2 factors, and each factor contains 3 terms.
