Question
Identify the terms, thier coefficients following expressions:
$\frac{\text{a}}{2}+\frac{\text{b}}{2}-\text{ab}$

Answer

Definitions: A term in an algebraic expression can be a constant, a variable or a product of constants and variables separated by the signs of addition (+) or subtraction (-).
Examples: $27,\text{x},\text{xyz},\big(\frac{1}{2}\big)\text{x}^2\text{yz}$ etc.
The expression $\frac{\text{a}}{2}+\frac{\text{b}}{2}-\text{ab}$ consists of three terms , i.e., ​$\frac{\text{a}}{2},\frac{\text{b}}{2}$ and -ab m and -ab. The coefficient of $\frac{\text{a}}{2} \ \text{is} \ \frac{\text{1}}{2}$. The coefficient of $\frac{\text{b}}{2} \ \text{is} \ \frac{\text{1}}{2}$ and the coefficient of −ab is -1.
