Answer:

Five is a constant.

Explanation:

A constant is a number with out a variable in a equation or an expression.

5 is by itself, so it is considered a constant.

3 would be a coefficient because it has a variable with it.

A coefficient is used to multiply a variable.

Five will also be considered a term.
