Question

What is the number of terms in this expression? m/5+4x6

Answer 1

By definition, a term can be:

1. A variable.

2. A number called "Constant".

3. A variable multiplied by a number, which is also called "Coeficient".

4. Variables multiplied together.

In this case you have the following expression given in the exercise:

`(m)/(5)+4\cdot6`

Notice that you can multiply the numbers:

`=(m)/(5)+24`

As you can see, this term

`(m)/(5)`

and this term:

`24`

are separated by this sign:

`+`

Therefore, there are two terms in the expression.

The answer is: Two terms.
